Elegant, commanding and effortlessly graceful

Some dresses make an entrance for you, and this one does it with style. The collar gives a sharp, polished frame to your face, the buttoned waistband adds a striking detail, and the pleated skirt sweeps around you as you walk. Add heeled sandals and a structured bag and you feel elegant and assured, the woman people notice and remember long after the evening has ended. It is quiet power, beautifully cut.

A defined waist and sweeping pleats

The wide waistband holds your shape neatly, so you feel supported and tall, while the fine pleats fall freely from the hips and swing with every stride. The sleeves are rolled to below the elbow, keeping you covered and cool. You can walk across a room, sit through a long dinner or dance at a reception, and the skirt moves gracefully around you without ever clinging. It is elegance you can actually move in, all night long.

Evening dinners and smart receptions

This is the dress for a smart dinner in town, an anniversary celebration, a gallery evening or a wedding reception. Wear it with strappy heels and a small structured bag for a polished look, and add a tailored coat when it turns cold. It also suits a theatre night or a business dinner, any moment when you want to look refined and confident without wearing anything stiff. It is a dress that rises to every occasion.

Your questions about this piece

Sizes run from S (UK 8) to XL (UK 14), and the size guide gives the sleeve, waist, shoulder and length of each one in cm and inches. The waistband is fitted, so choose by your waist measurement.

Strappy heeled sandals or slim court shoes lengthen the line for the evening. Heeled ankle boots work well in cooler weather.
