"Love my Joan Dress so much - the MOST versatile dress! Cannot wait for my gingham version too!" - Laura
A dress years in the making, The Joan Dress is the culmination of our favourite silhouettes - the fluid ease of the Highland, the simplicity of the Midnight, and the graceful elegance of the Carousel. All brought together in one thoughtfully refined piece.
The Joan features a gently scooped slash neckline which can be reversed for a V neckline, plus an easy, skimming fit through the body, and a floaty sleeve. The skirt drapes just right - not too full, not too narrow - offering movement and comfort in equal measure, and a matching tie means you can nip it in or wear it loose. Plus deep side seam pockets!
Crafted in limited edition fabrics, this 100% viscose polka version is designed to move with you through the changing seasons, the perfect year-round piece. Please be aware that sizes XL-5XL have a seam at the centre front and back due to the fabric width.
PLEASE NOTE: every dress has been cut and hemmed to an extra long length (cut 2" shorter on the 5ft 3" model wearing the small - Becky wears the standard length in 2 ginghams in an XL and is 5ft 7"). If you require a shorter cut, please make a note at checkout of the length you require.
FIT CHECK
This is a more fitted style at the bust and loose and flowing through the waist and hip (unless you nip in at the waist with the removable waist tie). Pay attention to the bust measurement - this should be a couple of inches larger than your actual bust (see size guide tab) to ensure a great fit.
