DEDICATED LO LEO: the knitted dress that is both warm and bold
The LO LEO by Dedicated is one of those dresses that instantly has personality. A fitted knitted dress in organic cotton, featuring a rich jacquard animal print in black, brown, and blue. Not modest, not boring, but very wearable. It is exactly the kind of dress you put on on a cold day when you want to stay warm, but also want to look nice.
The dress has long sleeves, a high neck, and a flattering, fitted silhouette. Thanks to the jacquard knit, it feels sturdy and warm without being a bulky wool dress. And because it is made of 100% organic cotton, it feels soft and natural against the skin. I am wearing a size L in the photo.
Why you will want this dress
A knitted dress is perfect for colder days. You are dressed in an instant, you don't have to think about endless layers, and you still look put-together. The LO LEO has exactly that effortless ease, but with a print that makes it just a bit more exciting.
The animal print is woven into the jacquard knit. This gives the dress more depth and texture than a regular printed fabric. The colors remain beautifully dark and rich, with blue as a surprising accent. This makes the dress eye-catching without being over the top.
This is truly a great dress for autumn and winter. With tights and boots, it is instantly ready for cold days. With loafers or sturdy shoes, it becomes a bit edgier and less formal. And with a long cardigan or coat over it, you have an outfit that requires little effort but really works.
Fit & styling
The DEDICATED LO LEO has a slim fit and runs relatively small. If you like a form-fitting dress, you can choose your own size. If you are between sizes or prefer a slightly less tight fit, we would choose the larger size.
Due to its straight, fitted shape, the dress drapes beautifully along the body. The high neck gives it a calm, dressed-up appearance and makes it extra cozy for colder days. The length hits above the knee, depending on your height.
Wear it with thick tights and boots for a classic winter look. Pair it with loafers and socks to make it more playful. Want it to feel less form-fitting? You can wear an oversized cardigan, a long jacket, or a chunky coat over it.
Material & wash instructions
The LO LEO is made from 100% organic cotton and is GOTS-certified. The fine jacquard knit feels sturdy, soft, and comfortable. Because it is a knitted dress, it is best to treat it with a little extra care.
Wash the dress inside out at a low temperature and use a small amount of detergent. Do not overfill the washing machine so that the knit can rinse properly and does not rub unnecessarily. Avoid the tumble dryer, as knitted cotton usually doesn't benefit from it.
Gently pull the dress into shape after washing and let it dry flat. This prevents the knit from stretching unnecessarily. Iron at a low temperature, preferably inside out.

Sustainable & fair
Dedicated works with organic cotton and clear certifications. This dress is made from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton. This means attention is paid to the material, processing, and production conditions.
What we love about this dress: it is warm, practical, and bold all at once. It is not a dress you buy for just one occasion, but one you can wear all autumn and winter long. And that is ultimately what sustainability is: choosing clothing you reach for often.
Don't buy if...
Are you looking for a loose, flowy dress or an oversized model? Then the LO LEO is probably not the dress for you. This dress is designed to be fitted and runs relatively small.
But are you looking for a warm, knitted organic cotton dress with a beautiful jacquard animal print and a feminine fit? Then this is a great choice.
