Pull it on and look ready

Some mornings you want to look like you tried without actually trying, and this dress does that for you. The round neckline sits neatly, the sleeves cover the tops of your arms, and the skirt drops in an easy line to below the knee. Add a long necklace and a pair of sandals and you are dressed for coffee, errands and a late lunch. You feel tidy and relaxed all day, and nobody needs to know it took a minute.

Room to breathe around the middle

The soft tucks at the waist let the fabric open out, so the dress skims your tummy and hips instead of hugging them. You can sit down to a long lunch, reach for a high shelf or chase a bus without tugging at anything. The cut stays loose and airy when the day warms up, and the short sleeves keep your shoulders cool. It is the sort of comfort you notice at the end of the day, when you realise you never thought about it once.

From the garden to a seaside weekend

Picture a sunny Saturday: pottering in the garden in the morning, then a stroll along the seafront with friends in the afternoon. This dress handles both without a change. Wear it with flat sandals and a straw bag for the day, then swap to a pair of wedges and a bright necklace for supper on a terrace. Fold it into a weekend bag and it comes out ready to wear, taking you easily from one plan to the next.

Your questions about this piece

Take your usual UK size: the size guide runs from S (UK 8) to 5XL (UK 22). The dress is cut loose, so check the bust measurement first; if you are between two sizes, choose the larger one for an easier fit.

No, the pleated tucks sit at the waist and the skirt falls loosely from there. It skims the waist and hips rather than following them, as you can see on the photos.

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 can return it within 14 days from delivery.

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.
