Style & Fabric

An elegant easy-fit and flare shape in Autumn-weight handloom stripes with a beautifully cut panelled skirt and discreet silk piping

About the Print

The cotton stripe for this dress was handwoven for Daydress in Kannur, Kerala.  This is a very beautiful and quite smart handloom using hand-spun cotton from South India.

This piece was cut, stitched and finished entirely with our close partners in Jaipur. Each design is produced in small batches of around 30-50 pieces to ensure exclusivity and complete control and care in production.

Sizing & Fit

Model is 5ft 8

The Frances dress fits gently on the chest and flows freely down. As such it makes for a great maternity dress. This dress has pockets and pulls on over the head. The 3/4 length cuffs are lightly elasticated.

Note: this style now runs a little larger than the same dress from previous seasons', If  you already own a Frances and are happy with the size, we recommend sizing down.

Please use the below chart to find your perfect fit. While an XS is approximately a UK 8, and an S a UK 10 etc, there is no such thing as standard sizing and the only way to be sure the dress will fit is to measure yourself. Measure chest around the fullest part.
