Spring midi dress in florals, satin, muslin or linen

In April a spring midi dress has to get through a cold bus stop at eight and a sunny patio at two, so nearly half of ours have long sleeves. Hems land at the knee or lower. We sew them in florals, satin, muslin, linen and lightweight viscose.

Sleeves for the cooler weeks

White with lilac flowers is the one we’d take to a christening. We make it in lightweight viscose. The long sleeve finishes in a cuff, a belt pulls in the waist, and a wide frill trims the bottom edge. Outdoors, those lilac blooms look lovely in photos.

Wind picks up after sunset? Our black floral midi covers your arms and reaches roughly mid-calf, which beats a sundress on a breezy evening. Keep the bag plain. The flowers are busy enough.

For a dinner out, there’s a chocolate satin wrap with full sleeves. The fabric is 98% polyester with 2% elastane, enough stretch to pass the bread basket without feeling the seams pull. The ties let you set the waist, and its beige twin does the same in a lighter shade.

Our velvet and rib-knit midis belong to the cold-season collection. They’re worth a look if March where you live still feels like February.

Short sleeves for warm afternoons

Muslin wraps with a flounce come in light blue and pink. They’re cool in the heat, and a quick steam after washing takes out the light crinkle muslin gets. Wear one to work if your office has a summer dress code.

Lemon satin is the brightest thing we make for spring. It has flutter sleeves, a flared skirt and a bare back, and that back is the reason to put your hair up. You’ll want a bra without a back clasp here.

Then there are the dots. A white midi with black polka dots ties in a bow at the neck, and its loose cut means you can move all day without thinking about it.

Lighter pieces from our summer collection show up on the site from March. Until then, browse the full spring range, see flower prints below the knee, or plan ahead with outfits for April and May weddings.
