Why It Works
The contrast piping and godet construction give this dress the structure of a tailored piece with the ease of a single-layer outfit.
- White contrast piping along the collar and button placket creates a sharp, finished look without requiring additional accessories
- Godet panels add skirt volume from the hip down, allowing full movement through a busy work day without sacrificing polish
- The full button front and self-tie belt allow fit adjustment at the waist, accommodating different proportions without alteration

Fit Logic
- Silhouette: Fitted through the bodice with a defined waist via self-tie belt, flaring into a full godet midi skirt that falls approximately to mid-calf. Sleeveless with a structured point collar.
- Best For: Works across a range of proportions; the self-tie belt allows waist definition to be adjusted. The flared godet skirt balances a fuller hip. Best for average to tall heights given the midi length.
- Styling Tip: Knot the self-tie belt slightly off-center rather than in a flat bow to add a relaxed, modern finish to the structured collar.
