The Hellebore Dress

- INFO
This style combines everything you love about them into one versatile piece. With a straight sleeve that can be rolled to a cuff, this dress is also reversible, so you can switch between buttons and a neck-tie on one side, and a high neck (and shorter bodice) on the other, both leading to opulent gathers that hang from this seam to create a full skirt with a LOT of swing! A dropped armhole means this one is super comfy, and it has roomy side pockets too.
This version is made in the perfect mid-weight linen/cotton blend (87% linen & 13% cotton) and finished with french seams (as with all our garments) to ensure it is the ultimate in comfort - you won't want to take it off! The buttons are made in the UK, and are eco-friendly corozo.
PLEASE NOTE: every dress has been cut and hemmed to an extra long length (as seen on the models). If you require a shorter cut, please make a note at checkout of the length you require.
FIT CHECK
As this garment is a naturally oversized fit, you should pay most attention to the shoulder to waist measurement (which refers to the length of the longer side bodice), as this will determine the correct aesthetic you desire. Refer to our size guide tab for a rough size, but note that the garment itself will drape to fit so you can size up or down. For example, if you are tall or have a larger bust you could easily size up to ensure the waist sits lower on your body, and vice versa.
I wear the S in the standard length (extra long compared to our made-to-order styles) - I am 5ft 3" and measure S at the bust and M at waist/hip.

If you are in between sizes or have any specific requests don’t hesitate to get in touch. I am always happy to alter designs to create the best fit. Remember the garments are designed to be a little oversized so if you are in between sizes you can size up or down depending on whether you prefer a slim or loose fit.
All garments are made for an average height of roughly 5ft 6”. Length measurements are stipulated on each product page with an option to add or remove length but do let me know if you’d like a further adjustment.
In order to obtain your measurements please follow the guide below:
- Bust - Measure all the way around your bust at the fullest point in an everyday bra if you wear one.
- Waist - Measure all the way around the narrowest part of your waist, which normally falls around your belly button.
- Hips - Measure all the way around the widest part of your hips or top of thighs.

SHIPPING - Made-To-Order garments will be shipped in 3-5 weeks. Ready-To-Ship garments will be shipped in 3-4 days.
Unfortunately we have had to remove the EU and Northern Ireland as shipping options due to the new GPSR. We will keep looking into ways to change this and apologise for any inconvenience.
FABRIC CARE - Machine wash at 30, air dry (do not tumble dry), and iron on “cotton”. Some colours may fade slightly, so keep separate from other garments for first wash.
