Description
The Francoise offers a confident line with its high halter neckline. An A-line silhouette that carries itself with understated ease.
Crafted from natural linen in a deep olive shade, the fabric offers a crisp texture that softens gracefully with wear. It provides breathable comfort for any warm weather occasion.
Fit notes: The Francoise is fitted through the bust and waist, then gracefully flows into an A-line skirt. The halter neckline offers a secure and flattering fit, creating a clean shoulder line. If between sizes, consider your bust measurement; the skirt has ample room. Find your measurements in the Size Guide.

The Bielline Difference
One dress, two sizes. The bodice is cut to your top size, the skirt to your bottom, made to your measurements after you order. How it works
Fabric & Care
100% European linen, garment-washed for softness. Machine wash cold, line dry, warm iron. It gets better with every wash.
Shipping & Delivery
Your dress is cut and sewn after you order: 7–14 days in production, then tracked shipping to the US and UK. 14–28 days door to door.
Returns & Exchanges
We make it fit. If the cut is our error, we remake it or refund you in full. If your measurements were off, we send a $30 tailor credit toward a local adjustment, so the dress still ends up fitting you.
The Bielline Difference
One dress. Two sizes. Yours alone.
Choose your top size
The one that fits your shoulders and bust. Nothing pulls, nothing gapes.
Choose your bottom size
The one that fits your waist and hips. The drape falls exactly where it should.
Made for you, to your sizes
Cut and sewn to your combination, finished by hand, so the first wear feels like the tenth.
From the atelier
Deliberately designed. Worn for years.
Ten pieces a season, each cut after you order it and finished by hand with French seams. Made to be reached for, not saved for.
Morning meetings to dinner outside: one dress, no costume change.
“It moves with me, and it fits exactly where it should.”
