Even when winter marks its arrival with plunging temperatures, as an authority on intelligently designed dresses, our styles continue to indulge your dress obsession throughout the year - winter being no exception. Transition through the seasons and style with classic winter layering pieces and knitwear and choose silhouettes that address your changing sartorial needs. 

Our edit of six key maxi dresses champion the moment the mercury drops and well after it’s started its rise to signal summer’s arrival. 

The Solution to a Busy Working Day Followed by After-Hours Socialising

The Contrast Fit-and-Flare


Winter is the time we’re torn between hibernating at home and finding comfort in our favourite local haunts, a friend’s house, or a bustling restaurant. When an invite for a post-work event lands in your inbox and you don’t have time to make a costume change, the solution is long dresses that require no additions for them to look equally at home in refined settings as they do in more relaxed ones.

Championing a bold monochrome palette, our Contrast Panelled Fit + Flare Dresses fit the bill. The styles hero either a black or white base outlined with a contrasting trim that emphasises your waist, the buttoned placket, and the leg-lengthening side stripe. 
Play with different heel heights to set different tones - a smaller one instantly feels more professional while a tall block one creates a more evening-leaning finish. A longline coat keeps the cold at bay as you dash between destinations and should you want to keep on your extra layers when you arrive, a cropped jacket doesn’t detract from the styles’ flattering silhouettes.

The Solution to Hosting at Home

The Metallic Stripe Maxi

A few weeks ago when the invites were sent, you were filled with a sense of excitement; Pinterest boards were bursting with decor ideas and post-it notes divided almost every page of your cookbooks. Now, however, the reality of hosting has set in, specific ingredients seem scarce on every supermarket shelf and you haven’t even begun to consider what to wear. 

We might not be able to take on the role of sous chef, but we can eliminate any sartorial pressures on the day. In a comfortable, uncomplicated round-neck cut, our Metallic Stripe Dress is crafted from stretch viscose detailed with metallic threading that emphasises the striped pattern working its way over the sides.
Comfortable and instantly introducing a sense of fun to proceedings, it can be dressed up with dramatic drop earrings and metallic heels, too, when the time comes for someone else to play host.

The Crinkle Silk Maxi

No one ever said bright colour was the reserve of warmer months. This season, autumn and winter dresses are embracing glorious technicolour.

In an ultra-pink shade that knocks classic blacks and navys out of the water, our Sheer Crinkle Maxi Dress + Belt is crafted from semi-sheer silk in a textured, crinkle finish. Cinch in your waist with the optional belt to create a more defined fit and leave a couple of buttons at the neckline undone to achieve a more relaxed finish to your downtime and out-of-office hours.

The Wear-to-Everything Contemporary Classic

The Twist-Front LBD

A truth universally acknowledged:
a classic black dress always hits the mark. 

Our Twist Front Maxi Dress is - quite literally - a twist on the eveningwear staple. Framed by long sleeves that fit close to your arms, a V-neckline leads to a series of gathered details that work their way down to your waist, cinching in the sides to create a flattering silhouette.

The Town-To-Country Solution

The Cord Shirt Dress

Equally at home next to country pub’s roaring fire as it is on city streets, our Jacobean Cord Maxi Shirt Dress + Belt heroes a bold bespoke pattern designed in our London studio over a textured cord fabric. Texturally marking the seasons’ change, the fabric has a soft hand feel that introduces a sense of warmth to the long-sleeved style.

Endlessly adaptable, it heroes a button-down front topped with a neat collar, an optional belt to cinch in your waist, and practical pockets that have been intelligently designed to ensure they’re functional but don’t add bulk to your hips. 

Pull on a pair of Chelsea boots beneath the hem or opt for a classic brogue when you’re in the city.
