DETAILS
DETAILS
- FIT : This dress is a more slim-line fitted dress, so it is hugs the hips more. It is super flattering. Remember this fabric does not cling to your body (even when you sweat). If you have curvier hips you may find that the size recommender tells you to go up to a bigger size, which then may be too big in the bust. For curvier women, we suggest you choose one of our more A-line fitting dresses which has ample space built in for hips.
- LENGTH : 37"
- FABRIC : 100% natural, breathable and lightweight cotton
- WEIGHT : Medium weight not see-through
- STRETCH : Stretchy fabric. Crease free, perfect for travelling
- POCKETS : Hidden side seam pockets
- STYLE : D3206

This dress fits very well and is cool and comfy but still fabulous to wear down town for shopping, etc. Will become a great travel staple as well.

Love this dress, so comfortable and easy to wear
Paddy W. 5/5 Verified
I was a little disappointed in the fabric. For some reason I was expecting the same material as my previous purchase which never needs ironing. The fabric of my latest purchase is definitely not no ironing. I had to iron it on delivery and again after washing. However, on the “ flip side”, it is very comfortable to wear although there is a difference in the sizing label so had to send it back for a smaller size. One dress is XL and the newer one is L. , I wore it to the shops this morning and had a nice comment about it.
