The Bähia Dress

The Bähia Dress is a hand‑crocheted gold mini masterpiece, made slowly and skillfully in Brazil. Its halter neckline frames the shoulders beautifully, while the open back is finished with an adjustable tie so you can loosen or tighten the fit exactly how you like. Designed for a small/medium, the crochet has a natural stretch that hugs the body in all the right places without ever feeling restrictive. It fits like it was made just for you. Versatile and striking, this dress moves effortlessly from a night out to a special occasion to a sunlit day. Hours of careful work went into every stitch — a true reflection of Brazilian craftsmanship and the artistry behind Chaïa’s Brazil Ï Collection.

New Year's Eve in Bahia

She spent New Year’s Eve in Bahia, where the whole coastline glowed white. It’s tradition — everyone wears white to welcome the new year with peace and good energy. But she slipped into her gold Bähia Dress instead, the hand‑crocheted one that shimmered every time she moved. The moment she stepped onto the sand, she knew she’d made the right choice.

People stopped her constantly.

“Where is your dress from?”

“It’s stunning.”

“I’ve never seen anything like it.”

She just smiled and said she forgot — keeping Chaïa her little secret, even though she knew exactly where it came from. A globally inspired brand, handmade in Brazil, crafted with hours of care. But tonight, she wanted the magic to stay hers.

The dress set the tone for the whole night. She felt like an icon — glowing under the Bahia moon, dancing with her friends and family as fireworks burst across the sky. Music played from every direction, the air warm and full of celebration. When the clock struck midnight, they all shouted “Happy New Year” and popped a bottle of champagne, laughing as the bubbles spilled onto the sand.

Afterward, they headed to a 1‑day DJ set that lasted until sunrise. She danced until 5 a.m. and by the time they made it back to their beach house, they collapsed into bed, exhausted and happy.

It was a night she’d never forget — not just because of the fireworks or the music or the sunrise, but because of how she felt in her Bähia Dress. Bright. Confident. Completely alive.
