W5345 Regular Dress - Black Mesh Shawl Collar Crepe de Chine Faux Leather Italian Women's
Where Structure Meets Transparency — A Dress That Commands the Room
Conceived in Italy and built for those who dress with intention, this regular-fit dress from LA HAINE INSIDE US layers three distinct fabrics into a single, cohesive statement. The open mesh exterior with its dramatic shawl collar creates a tension between exposure and structure, while the crepe de chine lining moves with the body in fluid silence. Adjustable faux leather straps with grosgrain detailing anchor the silhouette with an edge that is unmistakably the brand's own.
Why This Dress Is Different
- Triple-Fabric Construction: Three materials — mesh, crepe de chine, and faux leather — engineered to work as one cohesive garment.
- Shawl Collar in Mesh: A sculptural neckline that frames the décolleté with architectural precision.
- Crepe de Chine Interior: A 100% polyester lining with the drape and sheen of luxury — smooth against the skin, fluid in motion.
- Adjustable Faux Leather Straps: Grosgrain-finished straps that allow a custom fit while adding a tactile contrast element.
- Regular Fit: A clean, unfussy silhouette that flatters without restricting — designed to be worn, not just admired.
- All-Black Palette: A total-black composition that reads as both minimal and maximalist depending on the light.
- Italian Craftsmanship: Designed and made in Italy, where garment construction is treated as an art form.
- Versatile Occasion Dressing: Transitions effortlessly from editorial shoots to evening events to gallery openings.

The Moment You Put It On
There is a particular kind of confidence that comes not from being covered, but from being composed. The moment the crepe de chine lining settles against your skin — cool, weightless, almost imperceptible — and the mesh exterior catches the light, you understand what this dress is doing. It is not asking for attention. It is simply impossible to ignore.
You adjust the faux leather straps, feel the grosgrain between your fingers, and the fit locks into place. The shawl collar frames your shoulders like a statement you didn't need to make out loud. This is dressing with architecture — where every layer has a reason, and the whole is far more than the sum of its parts.
The Art of Mesh and Crepe de Chine
Mesh is one of fashion's most demanding fabrics — it reveals as much as it conceals, which means the construction beneath it must be impeccable. LA HAINE INSIDE US uses an 80/20 polyester-cotton mesh that holds its structure without stiffness, allowing the shawl collar to drape with intention rather than collapse. Beneath it, the 100% polyester crepe de chine lining brings the opposite quality: a fluid, almost liquid weight that moves with the body and eliminates any friction between fabric and skin. The pairing is deliberate — tension and ease, opacity and transparency, structure and flow. This is Italian garment engineering at its most considered.
How to Wear It
- Evening Event: Wear as-is with minimal jewellery — the dress is the statement. Add a pointed-toe mule and a micro clutch.
- Gallery Opening / Art Event: Layer under a sharp-shouldered blazer in black or charcoal. Let the mesh collar peek above the lapel.
- Editorial / Shoot Day: Style with chunky black boots and a structured belt cinched at the waist to break the silhouette.
- Dinner / Late Night: Pair with a long black coat and barely-there heels. Let the faux leather straps do the talking.
Care Instructions
- Hand wash cold or delicate machine wash at 30°C
- Do not tumble dry — lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight
- Do not bleach
- Iron on low heat if needed; avoid ironing directly on mesh or faux leather straps
- Dry clean recommended for best results
- Store hanging to preserve the drape of the crepe de chine lining
