The Art of Hand Tie-Dye

Each Santorini dress begins as a finished ivory silk design before being individually hand dip-dyed over several days. The aqua dye is carefully drawn upwards through the silk chiffon, gradually blending into the white bodice to create our signature ombré effect. Mint and deeper aqua hand tie-dye detailing is then layered over the silk, adding depth and movement to every piece.

Because every dress is individually hand-crafted, each Santorini features slight variations in colour placement, making every piece entirely its own.

Design and Features

Designed with a softly shaped upper bodice lined in white microfibre, the Santorini dress gently skims the waist before flowing into three tiers of lightweight silk chiffon for elegant movement and a flattering silhouette.

Adjustable silk shoulder ties allow flexibility in styling and fit, while the front neckline can be adjusted for more or less coverage. Finished with white and aqua tassels, the Santorini can also be worn front-to-back, one of the signature design details of Lindsey Brown resort wear.

The hemline is deliberately left plain, allowing it to be altered easily if required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best dress to wear in the Maldives or Caribbean?

The aqua Santorini silk maxi dress is one of the most beautiful choices for a holiday in the Maldives or Caribbean. The fresh aqua and white ombré silk mirrors the colours of the ocean and the sky, making it feel completely at home against turquoise water and white sand. Lightweight, floaty and effortlessly elegant, it is the perfect dress for sunset dinners, beach walks and evening occasions on a luxury tropical escape.

Is the aqua Santorini dress suitable for a cruise holiday?

Yes, the aqua Santorini silk maxi dress is a wonderful choice for a cruise holiday. The flowing three-tier skirt moves beautifully on deck, and the adjustable neckline ties work equally well for a formal dinner or a relaxed evening at sea. The aqua and white palette feels fresh and luminous in warm evening light, and the lightweight silk chiffon packs flat inside a pillowcase, making it effortless to travel with.

How does the aqua Santorini dress fit?

The Santorini dress has a shaped upper bodice lined to the mid thigh, with a relaxed, flared skirt from the waist down. The adjustable silk shoulder straps and tie-front neckline allow you to customise the fit to your height and coverage preference. The three-tier skirt adds fullness from the waist rather than the hips, making it particularly flattering for pear-shaped figures. Available in Medium, Large and XLarge.

Can the aqua Santorini dress be worn two ways?

Yes, one of the signature features of Lindsey Brown resort wear is that many dresses can be reversed. The Santorini dress can be worn front to back, moving the aqua tasselled ties to the back for a different neckline and look.

What is hand tie-dye on silk?

The ombré effect on the aqua Santorini is created by hand after the dress is fully sewn. The silk chiffon is dipped into aqua dye so the colour graduates from white at the top to aqua at the hem. Mint and deeper aqua tie-dye detailing is then layered over the top, adding depth and movement. Because every dress is crafted by hand, no two are identical.

Is the Santorini dress an original Lindsey Brown design?

Our Santorini dress is the dress of dreams. Customers tell us how amazing this dress makes them feel when they put it on. The Santorini silk maxi dress is an original design, created by Lindsey Brown back in 2020, and is sold exclusively through our official website at lindseybrown.com.
