Josie | V-Neck Ruffle Hem Babydoll Dress
Textured V-Neck Babydoll Dress for Easy Summer Days
Meet Josie, a relaxed babydoll dress made for warm days when you want to look put-together without trying too hard. A flattering V-neckline sits above a raised seam, and the skirt falls in soft gathers to a swishy ruffle hem. The fine crinkle texture adds depth to every colourway, making this summer dress just as suited to weekend brunch and beach-town strolls as to a casual lunch or a backyard barbecue.
Product Details
- Fabric look/feel: Lightweight-looking woven fabric with a fine vertical crinkle texture that gives the colour subtle depth.
- Cut/Fit: Babydoll shape with a raised seam under the bust and a relaxed, flowing skirt that skims rather than clings.
- Neckline: Clean V-neck that opens up the neckline and suits pendants and layered necklaces.
- Sleeves: Short, loose sleeves that sit comfortably over the upper arm.
- Length: Short length, finishing just above the knee.
- Details/Finish: Gathered skirt with a ruffle tier at the hem for easy movement.
- Style: Casual, feminine and boho-friendly; available in a range of shades including brown, pink, green and red.
Styling Tips
- Add a round woven bag, flat sandals and a beaded bracelet for a laid-back market or brunch look.
- Throw a cropped denim jacket over the top and slip on white sneakers for breezy spring evenings.
- Dress it up with block-heel sandals, gold hoops and a long pendant necklace for a garden party or long lunch.
Care
Gentle cold wash or hand wash with similar colours, then dry flat or line dry in the shade. Cool iron if needed and always check the care label before washing.
Size & Fit
The photos show a relaxed, flowing fit through the body with definition only at the raised seam under the bust. Choose your usual size for this easy shape; if you're between sizes or prefer extra room through the shoulders and bust, size up.
