Honour Dress - China Blue - New Day Originals
Honour Dress - China Blue - New Day Originals
A match made in heaven – our delicate, classic China Blue print paired with our head-turning Honour style!
The ‘shirred’ (otherwise known as elasticated) bodice will flatter both fuller and smaller busts. Wear on or off the shoulder, Bardot style. The elasticated cuff on the sleeve means you can wear it pulled up above the elbow or as a three-quarter sleeve for extra chic creds. We’ve designed her with a gently flowing ‘tiered skirt’, the same as our ever-popular Hope Dress – one of the world’s most flattering silhouettes.
NOTE: This item is created using traditional block printing methods and is hand-made by artisans. The 'print' therefore is not always in the same position as shown in these images and can contain minor unique variations.
STYLE NOTES
Like all our dresses, they’re designed to take you from informal daywear to evenings out and even Special Occasions. Pair with red heels for an occasion-worthy look. For daytime, pop on some crisp white trainers and layer with a faded blue denim jacket.
FIT
We’ve worked hard to make sure the sizing is consistent with the average UK brand so take your ‘usual size ‘as brands like Next, LK Bennet and Boden. This style comes up just right and the shirred elasticated bodice and gathered waist offers a little sizing flexibility. Fin is wearing the XS , is 5ft 2 and it sits on her ankle but will look just as good on a taller silhouette.
