Janet | Elegant Long Sleeve Maxi Dress Image

Polished elegance for colder days

When the temperature drops, you still want to look elegant, and this dress makes it easy. The black bodice and long sleeves keep you covered and warm, while the grey pleated skirt adds a smart, almost tailored feel. Pull on heeled ankle boots, pick up a structured bag and you look polished and confident, ready for the office, a lunch or a gallery. You feel graceful, warm and completely put together from morning to night.

Fitted on top, pleats that swing

The bodice sits close to the body with a smooth, flattering crossover at the neck, and the long sleeves keep your arms warm without bulk. From the diagonal seam, the skirt opens into soft pleats that fall loosely past the hips and swing as you walk. There is plenty of room to stride out, climb stairs or sit through a long meeting, and the hem never catches on your boots as you go.

Office days, Sunday lunches and winter outings

Wear it to the office with heeled boots and a long coat, then on to dinner without changing. At the weekend it suits a Sunday lunch with family, a visit to a stately home or a festive market on a frosty afternoon. Add opaque tights and knee-high boots when it is really cold, or a chunky scarf and a felt hat for a country walk followed by a pub lunch by the fire.

Your questions about this piece

Use the size guide, which gives the chest, length and sleeve of each size from S (UK 8) to 4XL (UK 20) in cm and inches. The bodice is fitted, so go by your chest; if you are between two sizes, choose the larger one.

Heeled ankle boots, as in the photos, give it a smart, modern edge. Knee-high boots with tights work well in winter, and loafers make it easy for the office.

Your order is prepared within 24 to 48 hours, then delivered in 8 to 15 days; costs and the free-delivery threshold are shown in your basket. You have 14 days from delivery to return it.

Polished, comfortable, in UK sizes

We choose pieces that look polished and feel comfortable from the first wear: boots for wet pavements, knits for chilly mornings, dresses for the days that matter.

Sizes are given in UK measurements, payment is secure, and if something is not quite right, you have 14 days to send it back.
