- Skirt A-line, knee length, 88 to 91 cm
- Colours Green (a soft sage), Pink (a dusty rose)

The piece
Easy, and still considered.
A soft rib-knit dress that fits at the top and swings from the waist.
The dresses you actually live in are rarely the ones that look like an effort. This one asks nothing of you: stretch in the knit, give in the waist, and a skirt with enough movement to feel like more than a day dress.
The waist
A smocked band that stretches with you and marks the waist without a zip or a button.
The skirt
Cut in an A-line that swings as you walk and stops at the knee.
The knit
A soft rib with a medium stretch, close through the bodice without pulling.
Size and fit
| Size | Bust | Length |
|---|---|---|
| XS | 76 | 88 |
| S | 80 | 89 |
| M | 84 | 90 |
| L | 90 | 91 |
Garment measurements in centimetres, before stretch. It runs slightly small: between two sizes, take the larger.
