Verdant Whimsy

Sculpted and swishy, Verdant Whimsy’s the kind of maxi dress that gives a great first impression but then keeps surprising. That’s probably because there’s a lot going on here - from the ultra-detailed print to the clever cut and those tiers of twirl-worthy volume, this one’s basically an invitation to frolic in a sun-soaked Roman garden. Or just pretend you have one instead of a balcony with drying underwear and dying succulents.

Cap sleeves offer a bit of shoulder modesty for those who aren’t keen on tan lines, or don’t want to draw attention to their biceps - fair. And while the neckline is delicate, it doesn’t flash too much cleavage, which is great news for people who don’t want to lose their necklaces every time they bend down.

And because comfort and fabulousness can coexist peacefully (if you know where to look), this beauty’s bodice is fitted yet stretchy for body confidence after brunch, dinner, two sets at yoga, and even three-too-many Aperol Spritzes.
