Sleeveless Button Front Belted Midi Dress

Ten colours is a lot of choice for one dress, and it tells you something. This is a shape that works, so it gets made in everything from sea blue and violet to caramel, burgundy and gold. Buttons run down the front, the belt ties at the waist to set the shape yourself, and the sleeveless cut keeps it cool when the weather does not.

The fabric is 100% polyester with no stretch, and the body is not lined, so it hangs cleanly and stays light through a warm day. Sizes run S through 3XL. The measurements below show the length from 48.8 inches at S to 50.4 inches at 3XL, and the bust from 37 inches at S up to 52 inches at 3XL, so the body opens up considerably across the range while the length stays close to constant. Ruching adds shape through the waist where the belt sits.

Flat sandals and a straw bag make it a summer day dress with nothing else required. Pull the belt tighter, add a heeled sandal and gold jewelry, and it handles a wedding guest afternoon or dinner just as easily. When the temperature drops, a denim jacket over the top or a cardigan tied at the shoulders works, and ankle boots take it into autumn. Undo the lower buttons if you want more movement through the skirt, or leave them fastened for a cleaner line.
