Olena Dress by Pip & Pin Collective | Olena is a slightly A-line dress that features a subtle lace detail at the shoulders and neckline, a classic boat-neck and dropped shoulders. It can be a great stand-alone piece for the spring or summer when paired with some sandals and a long necklace, or a fantastic layer for fall and winter by wearing it over leggings or jeans with a jacket and your favourite pair of boots. Choose between two armhole finishing options to completely customize your look. Olena is knit seamlessly from the top down and in the round using fingering weight yarn.
