Glamorous, with a wink of daring

You want to walk into the party and feel like the best-dressed woman there, without feeling exposed. This dress strikes the balance. The puff sleeves and long skirt keep it graceful, while the little cut-outs at the waist and the open back add just enough daring to make it special. Add gold bangles and a bright clutch, and you are set. You feel glamorous, confident and quietly thrilled with yourself, as you should.

Light, flowing and kind to the arms

The light fabric falls loosely from the waist to the ankle, so it moves with you and never clings to the hips. The puff sleeves give the tops of your arms soft coverage while letting the air circulate on a warm night. The tie at the back lets you adjust the fit across the shoulders. You can sit through a long dinner, dance barefoot on the lawn and still feel completely comfortable at midnight.

Summer parties, holidays and sunset drinks

This is the dress for the best nights of summer: a garden party with fairy lights, a birthday dinner on a terrace, cocktails by the sea on the last evening of a holiday. Wear it with flat gold sandals and bangles for a relaxed look, or with heeled sandals and statement earrings for something dressier. Bring a light wrap for when the sun goes down and enjoy every compliment that comes your way.

Your questions about this piece

Sizes run from S (UK 8) to 3XL (UK 18); the size guide gives the bust and waist for each one, in cm and inches. The waist sits close because of the cut-outs, so choose by your waist measurement and take the larger size if you are between two.

A strapless or low-back bra works best, or stick-on cups if you prefer. The opening sits across the upper back, so a standard bra strap would show.

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.
