Coldwater Creek Ribbed Knit Maxi Dress

Bobby knew that the most powerful color a woman can wear is the one that makes her feel like herself.

This Coldwater Creek maxi dress in the deepest, richest plum is that dress. The color alone — a true aubergine, almost black in low light, glowing jewel-toned in the right moment — is enough to stop a room. But the construction is what makes it exceptional.

The yoke and long sleeves are crafted in a raised horizontal ribbed knit, adding texture and subtle structure across the shoulders and arms — a design detail that draws the eye upward and frames the face beautifully. The body transitions to a smooth, fluid knit that falls in a clean, graceful A-line all the way to the floor. The bateau neckline is wide and elegant. The silhouette is relaxed but never shapeless — this is a dress that drapes with intention.

This is a dress that asks nothing of you and gives you everything. No zipper struggle. No fitted bodice anxiety. Just slip it on, add your best jewelry, and let the color do what it was born to do.

Bobby would have belted this with something gold and worn it to every winter dinner on her calendar. She would have been right.

As shown in our styling photo, it pairs magnificently with a statement artisan jacket — but it is equally stunning worn alone. The Flashback velvet patchwork jacket shown in styling photos is a separate listing and is not included.
