Description

The Ellis Collection is a nod to Ellis Island, a beacon of hope to millions for a better life. This original Ivey Abitz design is made just for you in New York.

Get to Know Ellis

The Ellis Frock celebrates the symbolism and significance of Ellis Island. It reminds us of what millions of immigrants have given up in order to come to the United States. It reminds us of their resilience and hope for a better life.

The Ellis Collection also reminds us that Ivey Abitz is able to create clothing that celebrates our uniqueness because we live in a country that seeks to honour the ideals of independence. For that we are grateful, and we want to wear these ideals in everyday life.

Our inspiration came from the shape of the actual island, as well as the architectural details in the buildings, that welcomed those coming here for the first time. Curves and points adorn the bottom hem of the front and back of the frock. These details echo many other designs in the collection, especially the Bartholdi, Liberté, and Bedloe designs.

Subtle darting at the chest and a relaxed drape through the waist creates a comfortable silhouette. A sweeping a-line drape below the waist gives you complete ease of movement. Wraparound side ties give you the option of slightly cinching in the waist at the back of the frock or bringing the ties around to the front to create a belt-like look. If you plan to only wear the frock with a straighter and looser silhouette, you may order it without side ties.

Its deep v-shaped neckline allows your base layering frock to be featured above the waist. It also allows a shirt, like the Ellis Shirt, to be featured at the neckline.

Fabric

The frock can go in many different directions based on the fabric that you choose. Lightweight cotton voiles and silk chiffons give an ethereal layer that can be worn during the hottest spring and summer days. A woolen or textured cotton can give you a layer of warmth during the autumn and winter. Striped, textured, and plaid weaves lend themselves well to this sleeveless addition to an ensemble.

Ensemble Suggestions

The Ellis Frock was designed to be worn over the Liberté Frock, Ellis Shirt, Bedloe Frock, and under the Ellis Jacket. Due to its versatile design details, the Ellis can also be worn over most of our base layering frocks, skirts, and trousers.

Available in XS, S, M, L, and XL.
