This dress is a lovely example of jacquard stripe, alternating bands of soft silver grey and ivory that catch the light differently depending on the angle, giving real depth rather than a flat print effect. A wide ivory yoke frames the round neckline, the sleeves gather into neat button cuffs, and the back closes with a single button at a keyhole opening. An elasticated waist sits under a self fabric belt, drawing in before the skirt falls in soft gathers to a midi length. The dropped yoke and gathered sleeve head are classic 1980s details.

Let the stripe carry the look and keep styling simple, swap out for a metallic belt and hoops for daytime. Pair with block heels or flat sandals depending on the occasion and let the fabric's soft shimmer do the rest.
