The Celia Dress is a timeless design with hints of tailoring and an easy going feel. You'll have a huge amount of flexibility with fabric choice for this dress depending on the intended feel. You could opt for silk for a smart occasion, denim for a cool and casual feel or even a light wool weave for cosy winter wearing.
This dress is fitted on the shoulders and features an a-line cut with plenty of room for comfort and movement. The shape is forgiving from the bust down so it’s just about making sure the bust and shoulders feel good. The two-piece sleeve is three-quarter-length and the style comes with an optional belt.
