This Truly Fair shirtwaister dress is perfect for waking up your wardrobe. It has that classic collared, button-through bodice, with a softly elasticated waistband that gives shape and style without feeling fussy.

The skirt falls to just below the knee with a light, floaty drape, so it moves beautifully when you walk. It is a brilliant everyday-to-occasion piece, especially if you like your outfits to look polished and considered while still feeling easy to throw on.

Style her up with crisp and graphic notes adding white sneakers and a citron bag, or lean into vintage elegance with a pearl clip-on earring and a soft metallic sandal. If you want a little drama, add a punchy red lip, gold bangles, and a printed scarf tied at the neck. For colour accuracy, please note the dress colour is best represented by the close-up detail images and swatches rather than the full mannequin photos.
