We Style It... The Shift Dress

August 28, 2013

Jackie swore by them, Twiggy wasn’t photographed without one, Audrey even wore one to her own wedding. What are we talking about? It has to be the Shift. The shape that made a decade of fashionistas icons and flattered the lumps and bumps of the sixties onwards - if you’re without one of these failsafes in your wardrobe, then you need to get shopping! 

There may be many of these out on the high street, but to really separate yourself from the crowd, go for a more original take on this trend. Our Roxby - the perfect late summer purchase - is the merging of a classic shape with a modern edge, as we showcase our signature Monochromia print. With three quarter length sleeves, perfect for Autumn evenings, Roxby is the shift dress every fashion icon needs. Here’s how we’d style it:
