Umgee Leafy Ogee Print Mini Dress

An ogee is the soft double curve you have seen a hundred times in old tilework and wallpaper without ever knowing its name. Umgee has filled this one with leaves and run it across a mini dress in cream and black. The print gives it a refined vintage aesthetic while the shape itself stays a basic style, which is the right call: the pattern is doing the work, so the silhouette does not need to.

The fabric is 85% rayon and 15% nylon. It is lightweight and flowy, with soft draping and a relaxed airy fit, it is slightly stretchy, and the body is lined. Sizes run small through large. A small measures 35 to 36 inches at the bust, 27 to 28 at the waist and 35 to 37 through the hip. A large opens to 39 to 40 at the bust and 40 to 41 at the hip. Because The size chart gives each measurement as a range, the table below is worth reading properly before you choose.

Sandals are the natural partner for daily casual and holiday styling. Cream and black is an unusually easy pairing to accessorise, since it takes gold or silver equally well and sits beside tan, denim and black without a fight. A flat sandal and a woven bag covers the day. Add a low heel and a bare shoulder for the evening. When the air cools, a denim jacket over the top does not compete with the print.
