4M W5452 Dress - Black Asymmetric Punto Milano Stretch Iridescent Nylon Collar Women's LA HAINE INSIDE US
The Collar That Changes Everything. The W5452 is an asymmetric dress built on a foundation of stretch punto milano — a double-knit fabric prized for its structure, weight, and refusal to crease. But the defining element is the collar: an oversized construction in iridescent wrinkled nylon with metal hardware, lined in punto milano for a clean interior finish. It shifts color with the light. It commands attention without effort. Side and back slits introduce movement at the hem, releasing the structured silhouette into something more fluid. Made in Italy by LA HAINE INSIDE US. Why This Dress Is Different Iridescent wrinkled nylon collar: Changes color with the light — unlike a standard collar, it is a focal point that transforms the entire garment Metal hardware on collar: Adds weight and intentionality — the collar sits, drapes, and moves with purpose Punto milano stretch body: Double-knit construction that holds its shape without stiffness — where conventional knit dresses lose structure, this one maintains it Asymmetric cut: Architectural hem that creates visual tension and elongates the silhouette Side and back slits: Introduce movement and reveal at the hem without compromising the structured upper body Milano stitch inner collar lining: The interior finish matches the body — no raw edges, no shortcuts Dual-fabric construction: 68% viscose / 27% nylon / 5% elastane body + 79% polyester / 21% metal collar — each fabric chosen for its specific role Italian construction: Precision seaming and finish quality that holds its shape season after season Specifications Style: Asymmetric dress, oversized iridescent nylon collar with metal, side and back slits Color: Black Fabric 1 (body): 68% Viscose, 27% Nylon, 5% Elastane — stretch punto milano Fabric 2 (collar): 79% Polyester, 21% Metal — iridescent wrinkled nylon with metal hardware Fit: Slim structured — size worn XS on model (height 180cm, bust 85cm, shoulders 41cm, waist 64cm, hip 90cm) Origin: Made in Italy Brand: LA HAINE INSIDE US Season: Autumn / Winter / Evening Gender: Women's Women's Size Chart Size Bust (cm) Waist (cm) Hip (cm) XS 82–85 62–65 88–91 S 86–89 66–69 92–95 M 90–93 70–73 96–99 L 94–97 74–77 100–103 XL 98–102 78–82 104–108 The Moment You Put It On The punto milano settles against your body with a quiet confidence — structured, smooth, already composed. Then the collar catches the light. Iridescent nylon shifts from black to blue to green depending on the angle, the room, the hour. The metal hardware holds it in place with a weight that feels considered, not decorative. You move, and the slits at the side and back open just enough to remind you that this dress has more than one register. This is a garment for those who understand that a single detail — executed with precision — can reframe everything around it. The collar is not an accessory. It is the argument. The Art of Punto Milano Punto milano is a double-knit fabric constructed on a circular knitting machine using two sets of needles. The result is a fabric that is simultaneously stable and stretchy — it holds its shape under tension without the stiffness of woven fabrics. The viscose content (68%) gives it a natural drape and a subtle sheen. The nylon (27%) adds durability and recovery. The elastane (5%) ensures the stretch returns after every wear. Unlike single-knit jersey, punto milano does not curl at the edges and does not lose its structure over time. It is the fabric of choice for garments that need to perform as well as they look. The Art of Iridescent Nylon Iridescent fabric achieves its color-shifting effect through a weave structure that uses two different colored yarns — one in the warp, one in the weft. As the angle of light changes, different yarns catch the light, producing a shift in perceived color. The wrinkled finish on this collar is not a flaw — it is a deliberate texture treatment that amplifies the iridescent effect by creating micro-surfaces that catch light from multiple angles simultaneously. The metal component (21%) adds structural weight that allows the collar to drape and hold its form without interfering with the body of the dress. How to Wear It Evening, minimal: No jewelry — the iridescent collar is the statement; let it work alone Autumn daytime: Long structured coat over the dress, collar visible above the lapel — layered without competition Gallery opening / cultural event: The asymmetric hem and shifting collar read as intentional and considered — avant-garde without effort Travel-ready: Punto milano resists creasing; pack it, wear it, no iron needed Care Instructions Hand wash or machine wash cold (30°C max) on gentle cycle — protect the punto milano structure Do not tumble dry — lay flat or hang to dry to preserve drape and shape Do not iron the collar — the iridescent nylon and metal component are heat-sensitive; steam only if needed, from a distance Iron the body on low heat if needed, inside out Wash dark colors separately for the first few washes Store hanging to maintain the asymmetric hem shape Designed for those who understand that a single detail, executed with precision, can reframe everything around it.
