Sophisticated and quietly commanding, this knit midi dress is designed for women who appreciate refined elegance with modern comfort. The wide boat neckline sweeps gracefully across the collarbones, elongating the neck and creating a softly feminine frame. A sweeping curved placket travels diagonally down the bodice and hip, punctuated by a cascade of jewel-set pearl buttons that draw the eye downward for a beautifully lengthening effect. Long sleeves taper into snug ribbed cuffs, while a discreet front slit at the hem releases the fitted line for effortless movement. The soft brushed knit follows the body closely without restriction, creating an elevated look that transitions seamlessly from daytime occasions to evening events.

Finished in a deep navy tone, this dress delivers a polished, head-to-toe statement that flatters a variety of body shapes. The knitted construction provides warmth and stretch for all-day comfort, while the vertical run of pearl buttons and the clean midi length work together to streamline the figure and lengthen the leg line. The harmonious balance between the sculpted bodice and the fluid slit hem creates a look that feels both timeless and effortlessly chic. Whether styled with knee-high boots and statement earrings for a cool-weather evening, or paired with heeled pumps and a structured handbag for the office, this dress offers exceptional versatility.

Every product page has a fit finder next to the size selector — three questions, one recommendation, a few seconds. These charts are for anyone who would rather read the numbers.
How to measure
- Bust / chest. Around the fullest part, tape level, arms relaxed at your sides.
- Waist. Around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the navel.
- Hips. Around the fullest part, roughly 8 in below the waist.
- Inseam. From the crotch seam to the floor, in the shoes you'll wear the trousers with.
Measure over the underwear you'd normally wear, not over clothing. Keep the tape snug but not tight.

How our pieces are cut
- Dresses are cut true to size. If you are between sizes, take the smaller one — most of our dresses have ease through the waist.
- Coats and jackets are cut with room for a knit underneath. Take your usual size; size up only if you layer heavily.
- Knitwear is relaxed by design. Between sizes, take the smaller one unless you want an oversized look.
- Trousers and jeans run true to size. Between sizes, take the larger one.
- Shoes run true to size. If you have a wide foot, take half a size up.
