Square neckline with ruffle trim detail that frames the dcolletage with a softly romantic finish Smocked bodice with gathered elastication for a naturally defined waist without structured boning Tiered midi skirt with ruffle hem detailing, creating volume and movement through the lower half Full-length blouson sleeves with gathered cuffs, adding a considered, editorial proportion to the silhouette Bold shadow stripe floral print woven through the fabric, giving the dress a textural depth that reads differently in every light Fully lined for a comfortable, polished finish throughout the day A dress that does the work without trying too hard. The smocked bodice and tiered skirt strike a balance between ease and intention - the kind of silhouette that looks considered whether you've thought about it or not. The ruffle square neckline keeps things interesting at the top, while the blouson sleeves bring a softness that works well into the cooler months. Worn here with flat Mary Janes, it's a reminder that this dress doesn't need a heel to hold its own. Style it the same way for a weekend lunch, a garden party, or a family gathering where you want to look put together without the effort showing. Come autumn, layer a fine-knit roll-neck underneath and add ankle boots for a transition that feels natural rather than forced. Keep jewellery minimal - a gold bangle or simple drop earrings are all it needs. | Warehouse Women's Shadow Stripe Ruffle Square Neck Smock Midi Dress in Pink | Size: 10.
