Cynthia Damson Shirt Dress
Every year we look forward to choosing a new print for this wonderfully popular dress, and this year we're just adoring the delicious damson print! Style this with one of our stunning retro knits and a pair of knee boots for the ultimate comfort chic.
This classic shirt dress is always a reliable winner with so many of you, and it's easy to see why: a sweet little mandarin collar that can be styled up or down, 3/4 sleeves, a self-coloured belt to cinch the waist and a nice full skirt with pockets in the sides.
But is it machine washable, you ask? Why yes!
As you'll have seen from our blogs recently, we're trying to actively work towards stocking more "slow" fashion that is sustainable, and that will last you year after year. Our Palava dresses are best sellers partially due to their excellent eco-friendly approach; made in London by a small team, with a materials supply chain that is transparent and traceable to the source. This gorgeous dress is made from 100% Organic Cotton, woven and printed with Oeko-Tex certified dyes in Turkey by makers who collaborate closely with the designers here in the UK,
Those darling buttons aren't plastic, but are made from durable Corozo Nut.
Designed to be hand washed or machine washed at 30 degrees. Wash with similar colours. For further details please refer to the label inside the garment.
SIZING
We have taken the flat measurements of the garment to give you additional information to assist you with sizing decisions. Please remember these are taken with the garment lying flat and the measurement across the front of the garment, which is then doubled to give the full measurement. Remember to allow room for yourself, or compare against a garment that you already own.
