I was actually looking for maxi dresses, when I came across some extremely classic, “British old style” dresses at Hobbs. I think they could look great. It is vital to style them the right way though or they will look frumpy. They are a little “kitsch” in a way… but I like them!

Have a look at the pages if you like, there are many more, although I have chosen the ones I liked only, obviously! You must look at the dress itself and don’t let your eyes wander to the hideous shoes they show it with.

I know it’s difficult, but imagine that dress with a pair of really trendy heels… have you? Then you know it’s a cute dress!

Here are the ones I like:

The “table-cloth” one…

GrandMa’s doily…

The “Royal family” style…

“dress & skin” all one…

Here’s how I’d wear them:
