Polka Dot 3/4 Sleeve Dress

Polka dots never really leave, they just wait for you to come back to them. This Belinda dress keeps the print classic and lets the shape do the rest, with 3/4 sleeves that sit at the most useful point on the arm and a tie that draws the waist in where you want it. It comes in seven colours, black, yellow, blue, army green, brown, grey and red, so the same easy dress can read as quiet or bright depending on which one you choose.

The fabric is 100% polyester with no stretch, and the body is not lined, so it hangs cleanly and stays light on a warm day. Sizes run S through 3XL. The measurements below show the length moving from 43.3 inches at S to 45.3 inches at 3XL and the bust from 33.1 to 44.1 inches, which means it falls well below the knee on most wearers and keeps its proportion right across the size range.

Flat sandals and a canvas tote make it an everyday dress for errands and lunch. Swap in a heeled mule, tie the waist a little tighter and add small gold earrings and the same dress carries an evening out or a family gathering. In cooler weather a denim jacket or a long cardigan over the top works, and ankle boots keep the hem from feeling too summery. Because the print is doing the talking, plain accessories in one tone finish it best.
