Helsa Brie Midi Dress
The Helsa Brie Midi Dress brings effortless elegance to your everyday wardrobe. We designed this piece for women who value versatility without compromising on style. The midi-length silhouette flatters a range of body types, while the streamlined cut transitions seamlessly from morning meetings to evening gatherings.
Our signature fabric blend offers a soft hand feel and subtle drape that moves with you throughout the day. The dress features a carefully considered neckline that balances coverage with visual interest, and thoughtfully placed seams that create a defined waistline. You'll reach for this piece season after season, pairing it with sandals in warmer months and layering it with knits when temperatures drop.
We crafted the Brie with details that matter: discreet side pockets for convenience, a concealed back zipper for a clean finish, and a fully lined interior for comfort and opacity. This is the kind of dress that becomes a staple in your closet, reliable for both planned occasions and last-minute invitations.

Fabric & Construction
We selected a refined viscose blend for the Brie that delivers both structure and softness. The fabric has a smooth surface with just enough weight to drape elegantly without clinging. Our weave provides natural stretch in key areas, allowing the dress to move comfortably whether you’re sitting at a desk or dancing at a celebration.
The interior lining is a lightweight jersey that prevents transparency and adds a second layer of comfort against your skin. We finish every seam with double stitching to ensure durability through repeated wear and washing. The concealed zipper features premium hardware that glides smoothly and sits flat against your back, invisible under the fabric.
Sizing & Fit
The Helsa Brie Midi Dress is designed with a tailored fit through the bodice and a gently flared skirt that skims the hips without adding bulk. We recommend selecting your usual Helsa size for the most accurate fit. The dress is designed to sit at the natural waist, creating definition and proportion.
For those between sizes, we suggest sizing up if you prefer a more relaxed fit through the shoulders and bust. The fabric has approximately 5% stretch, so it will conform gently to your shape while maintaining its structure. Length-wise, the midi hemline falls mid-calf on someone 5’5″ to 5’7″ and may hit slightly higher or lower depending on your height. Our dress collection includes silhouettes in petite and tall proportions if you need alternative length options.
Care Instructions
We designed the Brie for real life, which means easy care that fits into your routine. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors. We recommend using a mesh garment bag to protect the zipper and minimize friction during the wash cycle.
Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry — both methods work well with this fabric. If you choose to iron, use a medium setting and press on the reverse side to preserve the finish. The viscose blend resists wrinkles naturally, so a quick steam or a few minutes hanging in a steamy bathroom will refresh the dress between wears. Avoid bleach and harsh detergents, which can fade color and weaken fibers over time.
