This animal print maxi dress runs the spotted pattern floor to floor in a soft column shape, with a V-neckline on thin straps and a fabric tie knotted at the waist that adds a little definition to an otherwise relaxed cut. It's the kind of dress you can put on for a summer wedding or a long lunch and not think about again once you're dressed, which is exactly the point of a good maxi.
The waist tie is what stops this from reading as a straight column with no shape to it. Knotted at the side, it pulls in just enough fabric to mark a waistline, then lets the rest of the skirt fall long and loose to the floor - so you get definition without anything close-fitting through the hip. It's an easy dress to pack for that reason: nothing about the cut depends on a tight fit holding its shape. If you want a dress with more built-in structure through the body this isn't the one, but that relaxed cut is what makes it easy to travel with.
It's relaxed through the body and floor-length, with the waist tie the only place it's pulled in - coverage is full length front and back. Compare your measurements to our size chart before you order, and if you're between sizes, size up. Fit shifts a little with torso length, and that extra bit of room tends to sit better than going too snug.
You'll find it made in a soft-finish fabric with a fluid drape that suits the column length. We'd suggest a gentle hand wash in cool water and laying it flat to dry, away from direct heat, which keeps the shape and finish intact for longer. Check the care label on your own garment as well.
It's the dress you throw in a bag for a weekend away, because it packs flat and still looks like you put thought into it.
What size animal print maxi dress should I order?
Compare your measurements to our size chart before you order, and if you're between sizes, size up - the column cut has little built-in ease through the hip.
What is it made from?
We don't have a percentage breakdown for this one, so we won't guess one for you.
Is the neckline a V-neck or a crew neck?
It's a V-neckline on thin straps, so you can expect a scoop at the front rather than a high, round neck.
