• A structured bow sits centrally at the square neckline, formed from the same bandage fabric as the bodice - it reads as intentional and architectural rather than decorative.
• The bodice is panel-stitched with fine horizontal banding that creates a corseted effect, visually cinching the waist without boning.
• From the waist down, the skirt opens into a full, sweeping midi silhouette - the bandage construction gives it enough body to hold its shape as it moves.
• Broad, structured shoulder straps sit wide on the shoulder, balancing the fullness of the skirt and keeping the overall line composed.
• Bandage fabric: firm, close-knit and smooth against the skin, it holds its structure throughout the day without creasing - exactly what you want when you're dressed for an occasion.

This dress earns its place at the front of the wardrobe for occasions that demand a considered look. The full midi skirt and structured bodice make it a strong choice for a wedding as a guest - formal enough to respect the occasion, individual enough to stand apart from the crowd. It pairs naturally with strappy heeled courts, as seen here, and minimal jewellery that won't compete with the bow detail. A small clutch in a complementary tone keeps the look sharp. The silhouette also translates well to summer race days, where the midi length and fitted bodice sit comfortably within dress codes without defaulting to the obvious. The dress needs nothing layered over it - a lightweight wrap for the ceremony is all that's required. Style the hair up to let the neckline and bow take full focus.
