This fantastic knit-blend skater dress is the sort of authentic vintage that feels immediately fun, considered and up lifting, thanks to the high neckline, long sleeves, and a tailored bodice that nips in at the waist before dropping into a flared A-line skirt.

The fabric has that easy-care practicality, but the finish feels hand-crafted and thoughtfully constructed. It zips at the back with an original zipper and is secured with an original hook-and-eye at the neckline, which keeps the high collar sitting neatly. The silhouette is brilliant for cooler months because it gives shape without clinging, and the skirt has enough swing to keep it feeling light on its feet.

Style it for work with a sharp navy blazer and boots, or take it weekend-ready with a vintage coat and a leather crossbody. If you like a bit of contrast, try a soft ivory scarf at the neckline, or add a punchy colour bag for a modern twist.

This shape is especially good if you like definition through the waist with a skirt that skims the hips and thighs. It can also be a great balance if you carry more fullness on your bottom half than your top half, or if you are broader through the shoulders and bustline and prefer a waist-defined silhouette that flows away from the body.
