Ochre stripes over olive
Tess is pieced from panels: narrow ochre stripes on oatmeal across the top, a block of faded olive below, and a striped length running down one side. The neckline notches into a short V above a plain placket, and the skirt runs long.
Why you'll love the Tess Summer Dress
-
Ochre and oatmeal striping: Warm, sun-bleached colour that suits a loose linen-weight cloth in high summer.
-
Olive lower panel: Grounds the brighter stripes above it and stops the length from floating away.
-
Notched V-neck: A small opening that reads neat under a straw hat and a pair of dark glasses.
-
Long sleeves, worn rolled: Push them up in the heat of the day and let them down again once the sun drops.
One for slow travel: worn all day, shaken out in the evening and worn again tomorrow without anybody being the wiser.
