Louise Wildflower Cotton Linen Dress

Tax included.
We just love the Louise dress in every print we receive it in, but this one might just be the prettiest.
Always fabulous on all shapes, sizes and ages, in a classic vintage-inspired 'shirt waister' style with two collar placements to create even more versatility. Turn the mandarin collar down like a classic shirt collar, or leave it worn up for an elegant and contemporary edge.
To emphasise that lush vintage silhouette there's a covered belt to nip the waist, and of course some brilliantly deep pockets to keep all your essentials for hands-free adventures.
We must mention the wonderful, bright print here. All our Palava dresses feature particularly striking print designed by the company, and this one is particularly special, as designer Bryony says: "As a child I would collect and press flowers - such a simple thing to do, but so rewarding. For this print I did the same, taking inspiration from our English meadows, hedgerows and woodlands, moorlands and hillsides. I have tried to capture just a little of what our wild meadows have to offer"

The delightful linen-cotton blend fabric is a dream; the cool, summery feel of linen with a much less creased finish thanks to the cotton content. You'll see a slight slubbing will occur on linen fabric, and we recommend leaving it when it happens to maintain the natural charm and character of this special fabric.

The buttons are made from Corozo nut; an ethical, sustainable and biodegradable alternative to plastic.

Wear with one of our Palava cardigans for some complementing colour and a touch of warmth for those cooler evenings.

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 HALF of the full measurement. Remember to allow room for yourself, or compare against a garment that you already own.
