CHATS by C.Dam Irene Dress in Brown
The CHATS by C.Dam Irene Dress in Brown is an authentic piece from the Spring Summer 2026 collection, cut in stretch crepe knit and twill suiting and made in Vietnam. It is available now at Coveti, a curated luxury-fashion retailer specialising in designer ready-to-wear with guaranteed authenticity and worldwide shipping.
A dress, symmetrical draping concentrated at the hips with elongated panels. CHATS by C.Dam makes it in Vietnam, in stretch crepe knit and twill suiting. Cuong Dam trained as an architect, and the construction shows: every fold is placed. Details: padded shoulders, sculptural padded volume at the hips, symmetrical draping, cascading panels flowing toward the hem and metal detail.
Cuong Dam trained as an architect before he turned to clothes, and CHATS by C.Dam is cut the way a building is drawn. Drapes are fixed into the pattern, shoulders are structured, and polished metal hardware marks the point where the folds meet.

How to Style the Irene Dress in Brown
Add long gloves for black tie, the way the house styles it on the runway.
- Let the construction lead. The drape and the metal detail are the decoration, so keep jewellery to one small piece.
- Gloves for black tie. Many CHATS by C.Dam evening dresses come with matching gloves, and the house styles them that way on the runway.
- Shoes that clear the hem. Long fitted dresses and flared trousers want a pointed heel that shows under the hemline.
- Suit it up. The blazers, trousers and skirts are cut to be worn together, in matching colourways.

About CHATS by C.Dam
CHATS by C.Dam is the ready-to-wear label of Vietnamese designer Cuong Dam. He graduated from the Hanoi University of Architecture in 2013 and opened CHATS in Hanoi with a group of friends soon after. His fashion house, CDAM, dates its founding to 2014.
The house describes its work as sculpture translated into tailoring. In practice that means long, close-cut dresses with draping that converges at the hip, padded shoulders, attached shawls and polished metal hardware. The collections are produced in Vietnam.
Colour is part of the signature. Each style tends to come in several shades, from black and white to cerulean blue, maroon red and chartreuse green, so a single silhouette can move from evening to the boardroom with a change of shade.
“The cut is precise and the fabric carries it. The CHATS by C.Dam Irene Dress in Brown is built rather than simply sewn. It holds its line all evening and needs almost nothing added to it.”
Gemma Deeks, Fashion Editor at Coveti
