This vintage dress has that crisp navy-and-white floral bodice that feels a bit like porcelain patterning, finished with a deep inky skirt that keeps the whole look clean and elegant. The neckline sits high with a navy collar band, and the sleeveless cut keeps the shape sharp through the shoulders.

From the bust to the waist it is fitted and tidy, then it releases into an easy A-line skirt that lands around the knee. The fabric has a soft drape and an easy-care feel.

For styling, go bold with colour. Try glossy red heels and a citron clutch. Or keep it playful with a striped cardi in red or white. For evening, add a coat or a wrap in bold jewel tones and finish with simple jewellery. 

This shape is great if you like a defined waist with a skirt that gives your hips room to move. It also works well if you are a bit fuller through the bust and shoulders and want a bodice that feels structured without clinging.
