Avyra Cotton Blockprinted Frill Dress Dark Brown

What is printed on this Avyra dress?

Rust and cream flowers with olive leaves are scattered across a dark brown ground. The blooms are spaced out, so the dress looks warm and earthy rather than busy, and the scattered print runs through the tiered skirt.

Which sizes can I choose from?

The dress comes in sizes 34 to 46 in a relaxed fit. It is 45 inches long, with 17-inch sleeves that have an elastic band in them, so it stays comfortable through the day.

Will the dark colour bleed?

Deep hand-printed shades may release a little dye in early washes. Handwash gently with a mild detergent, separately from other clothes, and dry in the shade. This keeps the brown rich and the cream flowers from dulling.

How do I wear it on cooler days?

Layer a rust, mustard or cream cardigan or a denim jacket over it, and switch to closed shoes or ankle boots. The dark brown base takes layering well, so the dress keeps working beyond the hottest months.

How do I style it for the office?

Pair it with a cream or rust jacket, closed tan flats or loafers and small gold earrings. The deep brown ground with rust and cream blooms looks composed at a desk, and the relaxed fit and elastic sleeves keep it comfortable through a long day.
