Tropical Mosaic

Staring at this dress long enough may induce a strong urge to book a one-way ticket to Capri. Or to North Queensland - it’s all much the same if you’re in a holiday state of mind, and this tiered maxi is the quickest shortcut there. There’s something about this piece that just asks you to slow down and enjoy the view, and perhaps even do some lazy twirling in front of a mirror (for old times’ sake).

Made from polyester that drapes beautifully and glides with every step, this dress is reminiscent of ornate tiles in continental Europe, minus the risk of stubbed toes. The pattern brings together an eclectic patchwork of geometric blocks framed by intricate borders, giving it more depth than most conversationalists at family events.

Slim spaghetti straps and a gentle square neckline frame the shoulders and neck, which is great for showing off your collarbones or maybe even some lightweight jewellery. The multi-tiered skirt floats just above ground level, making the silhouette light, feminine, and romantic without being stuffy or restricting movement. As for the panel of shirring on the back - it’s comfort done right, offering flexibility and added ease across the bust.

How does one end up looking put-together while feeling as relaxed as they would be in pyjamas? Find out by adding this dreamy piece to your summer wardrobe.
