Leila | Shirred Floral Maxi Dress
Leila | Shirred Floral Maxi Dress
Elegant Floral Maxi Dress for Summer Parties and Christmas Celebrations
Meet Leila, a women's floral maxi dress with a body-skimming silhouette and a print that catches the light. A shirred, bustier-style bodice sits under a soft square neckline, while a ruffle-edged high slit opens the ruched skirt with every step. It's an easy choice for Christmas parties, wedding guest outfits, long lunches and warm evenings out.
Product Details
- Fabric look: Lightweight, softly fluid fabric with an allover floral print in rich tones.
- Neckline: Square neckline finished with a delicate frilled edge.
- Sleeves: Sleeveless, with ruffle-trimmed shoulder straps.
- Bodice: Shirred bustier-style bodice that sits close through the bust and waist.
- Cut/Fit: Fitted through the body, with gathered ruching across the hips.
- Length: Maxi length to the ankle, with a high front slit edged in cascading ruffles.
- Style: Elegant and feminine, shown in green, navy and red colourways.
Styling Tips
- Pair with woven ankle-strap sandals, a straw hat and gold jewellery for a summer garden party or brunch.
- Add strappy heeled sandals, a structured clutch and statement earrings for a wedding guest look or Christmas party.
- Throw a cropped denim jacket or a lightweight blazer over the shoulders for breezier evenings by the water.
Care
Gentle cold hand wash or a delicate machine cycle inside out, then hang or lay flat to dry away from direct sun. Cool iron on the reverse if needed, avoiding the shirring, and always check the care label first.
Size & Fit
Leila is designed to fit closely through the bodice and hips, as the photos show, before the ruffled hem flows out at the slit. Choose your usual size for a sleek, contoured look; if you prefer a little more room through the hips, consider sizing up.
