Floral Print Square Neck Dress in Khaki

The square neckline is the reason to look twice at this one. It draws a straight clean line across the collarbone, which is a more architectural choice than the usual round or V neck, and it frames the shoulders in a way that makes the whole dress look considered. The floral print runs across a khaki ground, so it stays earthy rather than sweet.

The fabric is 100% polyester with no stretch, and the body is not lined. A zipper handles the closure, which keeps the line of the dress uninterrupted and means the square neckline holds its shape rather than stretching out over time. That is exactly why a shape like this benefits from a fabric with no give in it. Since it is not lined, it is worth thinking about what goes underneath. Sizes run small, medium and large, and the length sits at roughly 49 inches across the range, so check the table below against your height to see where the hem will land on you.

Flat sandals keep it easy through a warm afternoon, and a low heel takes it out for dinner without turning it into something formal. A denim jacket over the top handles the evening. Khaki is a genuinely useful base for a floral, since it sits comfortably beside tan, cream, gold and washed denim, which means the accessories more or less choose themselves. Keep the jewelry simple and let the neckline do the work.
