Wear it on its own during warm weather months, or layer it over tees and turtlenecks as the weather cools.

View A features a bra-friendly bodice and midi length skirt with side slits. View B features crossed straps and a low back, with a mini or below knee length skirt. The skirts and bodices are completely interchangeable so you can mix and match the Fiona of your dreams.

– PAPER (next working day dispatch on orders and FREE UK delivery over £50)

What we think: A lovely summer dress with an on-trend button-up front and big pockets. This dress would look perfect in a linen fabric for strolls on the beach and dinners out with friends.

Suggested fabrics: Medium weight wovens such as denim, twill, chambray, poplin, sateen and linen. Stretch wovens such as stretch sateen or stretch denim may also be used.

Fabric requirements:

45″ (1.14 m) wide fabric: View A: Sizes 0-8 = 2.5 yd (2.3 m) / Sizes 10-14 = 2.75 yd (2.5 m) / Sizes 16-20 = 3 yd (2.75 m) // View B (mini): Sizes 0-8 = 2 yd (1.85 m) / Sizes 10-14 = 2.25 yd (2 m) / Sizes 16-20 = 2.5 yd (2.3 m) // View B (below knee): Sizes 0-6 = 2.25 yd (2 m) / Sizes 8-14 = 2.5 yd (2.3 m) / Sizes 16-20 = 2.75 yd (2.5 m).

58″ (1.5 m) wide fabric: View A: Sizes 0-8 = 1.75 yd (1.6 m) / Sizes 10-14 = 2 yd (1.85 m) / Sizes 16-20 = 2.25 yd (2 m) // View B (mini): Sizes 0-8 = 1.5 yd (1.4 m) / Sizes 10-14 = 1.75 yd (1.6 m) / Sizes 16-20 = 2 yd (1.85 m) // View B (below knee): Sizes 0-8 = 1.75 yd (1.6 m) / Sizes 10-14 = 2 yd (1.85 m) / Sizes 16-20 = 2.25 yd (2 m).

Sizing: 0 – 20 (approx. UK 6 – 20, based on our standardised size chart). Please also check the designer’s size chart and finished garment measurements.

This size range is based on a B cup bust and an average height of 5’6″. Please note that B cup does not refer to bra sizing, but rather to the difference in inches between high and full bust. A 2″ difference between those measurements is equivalent to a B cup.

Notions: 1 yd/m of fusible interfacing; 1/2″-5/8″ (13-16 mm) buttons or snaps: mini = 15, below knee = 17, midi = 21 // Optional: topstitching thread for higher contrast details.
