Description

Navy, long-sleeved, cut close without being tight. A contrast border runs the neckline, the central placket and the hem — one unbroken line from collar to knee, which is what gives the dress its height.

The buttons down the front are pearl-effect and catch the light a little. The cuffs are tipped in the same contrast as the trim, so the sleeve finishes deliberately instead of just stopping.

The fabric

A smooth stretch woven that holds its shape through a long day and comes out of it without creases at the lap. The trim is a separate flat tape rather than a printed line.

How it fits

Cut to a US small, with the hem at the knee. The sleeves are slim; if you have broader shoulders this is one to try before committing.

Looking after it

Cold machine wash and hang to dry. It presses easily if you want the seams crisp; a warm iron on the reverse is enough. Wash it with like colours for the first few goes.

If you have been shopping separates for petite clothes for work and getting nowhere, this does the same job from one hanger — a korean fashion formal dress restrained enough to wear weekly, and a chic dress to impress without any effort on the day.

Why we took this one

The contrast trim runs in one unbroken line from collar to hem, which is where the height comes from. It is the dress for a week that needs one thing you can wear for twelve hours.

A vertical line is the oldest trick in tailoring and the cheapest to execute, which is why it is usually done badly — a printed stripe, a seam that stops at the waist. One continuous trim from collar to hem is the version that works, and it is what makes this a korean fashion formal dress you can wear on an ordinary Tuesday.

Three ways to wear it

  • Work — a low heel and nothing at the neck.
  • Winter — flat boots and a long coat.
  • Evening — the same dress, a better shoe, and one earring that catches light.

Before you order

Cut to a US small with the hem at the knee. The sleeves are slim — if you have broader shoulders this is one to try before committing. Nothing should cut across that line, which is why the dress comes without a belt and why adding one undoes the design. A korean fashion formal dress restrained enough to wear weekly.
