Perhaps one of the most versatile and useful dress styles to have, the midi dress is a wardrobe essential that can be worn to a variety of outings and events. We love designing midi dresses and offer an extensive array of options.
For those of us of who don’t enjoy wearing tailoring to the office and want a more classically feminine look, midi dresses provide a comfortable yet elevated feel, perfect for 9 to 5 and beyond. Opt for one of our flowing midi dresses with a high neck and boots for the cooler months. This style is often inspired by a romantic, bohemian look, complete with blouson sleeves. The ease of movement and comfort found in these styles makes for easy layering; use stockings, coats, and fitted knits to add extra warmth.
Our knit dresses are also a good choice for work and with a change of footwear can easily transition you from desk to dinner date. Our knit dresses with collars reminiscent of classic rugby polos or Henley inspired styles can be worn more casually, team with fresh white sneakers and a puffer for the ultimate in sports luxe.
Our premium stretch-knit fabrics offer superior comfort and even though they sit close to the body they can help to create a flattering, sleek silhouette. Our range of midis also includes bodycon dresses, another sleek style that can be worn to evening events and parties.
Inspired by the bodycons of the 00s, this throwback style comes in modern fabrics and trending colours for a contemporary interpretation that will have you feeling beautiful and glamorous at your next special event. From edgy tones of lime to playful hot pink and blue, our bodycons are sure to help you make an entrance. Pair with block heels or strappy stilettos and wear to birthday celebrations, cocktail parties, and your anniversary dinner.
