A racer back dress that speaks before it's spoken to. Cut in soft cotton with a double-lined bodice trimmed in white lace, this piece carries hand-appliquéd patches — hearts and hand gestures stitched entirely by our Deaf design team in Indian Sign Language. Every patch is placed with intention, each stitch a word in a language most of us are only just learning to read.

Finished with side pockets and a flowing A-line skirt, 32 inches in length

Made to order, XS–XXL.
