‘Bonaparte Frontier’ is what a cartographer’s daughter wears to outpace her own map, rope-knots buttoned to the throat and skirts built for the long ride.
Woven from a breathable cotton-blend in a soft ticking stripe, warm sepia against cream like a well-loved field journal, ‘Bonaparte Frontier’ carries the kind of shade that catches gold at golden hour.
The bodice reads like the frontispiece of her journal. Napoleonic rope-knot fastenings run down the front in double columns, framed by ivory soutache braid and finished with antique anchor-embossed buttons, giving ‘Bonaparte Frontier’ its officer’s-parade backbone. It’s structured, ceremonial, and just theatrical enough to make an entrance without saying a word.
Her waist charts the course. A concealed centre-front zip runs beneath the buttoning so all that decorative detail stays purely decorative, the bodice sits close and fitted, and a back self-tie ribbon draws it tighter still, letting you set the fit yourself. Precision up top, prairie below: the skirt breaks into generous panels that catch the wind and move like she’s always halfway to somewhere.
A few more provisions, packed in. Roll-tab sleeves adjust from a soft flutter to a crisp cuffed short sleeve, so one dress covers a scorching afternoon and a cooler evening ride. Slip your hands into the braid-trimmed side pockets, a quiet functional win on a dress this dressed-up.
The ‘Bonaparte Frontier’ corset belt is where the story turns outlaw. Cut from supple matte faux-suede in a rich saddle tan, its edges and straps laser-cut into delicate scalloped lacework, it cinches the waist and refines the midline with cowgirl swagger. The shoulder straps and waist both adjust freely, and the straps detach entirely, so it reshapes around shirts, dresses, and whatever else earns a place in the rotation. Threaded through the centre, a removable hot-air-balloon print scarf ties in a soft bow, yours to knot, swap, or skip as the mood strikes.
Layered together, the striped dress and tan corset belt strike that irresistible soft-meets-structured frontier balance, romantic prairie stripes reined in by a waist-defining cincher.

• Dry cleaning is the best way to extend the life of your item.
• Hand wash in cold water, using a gentle detergent. Gently and slowly swish the garment then rinse with cold water. Remove excess water by rolling the garment in a towel and gently pressing to absorb lingering moisture. Ensure the garment keeps its shape by laying flat or hanging to dry.
• Use a steamer to get out creases in your item or simply iron inside-out on low heat, putting a cloth between the fabric and the iron.
