You’ve just found your new favourite dress. Designed to make an entrance from weekdays to weekends, this style has been crafted in a striking red shade that stands out from the crowd. The brand added a zip fastening that runs from the neckline to the hem, with the dress tying at the waist with a belt. There are cap sleeves and a round neck, as well as useful pockets at the sides. The textured fabric creates a checked effect, making it a timeless yet modern choice. Style it with neutral accessories to let the colour do the talking.
