Why we made this?
‘GRACE V-DRESS’ IN BLUE BANANA LEAF
As fun as it is unique, our Banana Leaf print is a head-turner. The ‘shirred’ (otherwise known as elasticated) V-neck bodice of Grace will flatter both fuller and smaller busts. The elasticated cuff on the sleeve means you can wear it pulled up above the elbow on sunny days or as a three-quarter sleeve on cooler days. The crisp organic cotton will keep you cool all day. We’ve used a gently flowing ‘tiered skirt’, the same as our ever-popular Hope Dress. We hope you love it!
NOTE: This item is created using traditional block printing methods and is hand-made by artisans. The 'print' therefore is not always in the same position as shown in these images and can contain minor unique variations.
Style Notes
With versatility at the heart of our drive for sustainability, the Grace dress is going to take you from day-time laid-back days to occasions where a little dressing-up effort is required! Pair with cream or white flatforms for a look that is both chic and comfortable. She’ll look equally good with a belt swap – we love white or black with this print, and a towering strappy sandal when the ‘occasion’ arises!Fit
We’ve worked hard to make sure the sizing is consistent with the average UK brand so take your ‘usual size ‘as brands like Next, LK Bennet and Boden. This style comes up just right with the shirred elasticated bodice and gathered waist. If you are fuller busted or like things a little more relaxed, size up – you’ll still get that body flattering shape! Fin is 5ft 2 and wears the XS in these photos so it’s almost maxi on her.
