Description

The Philippa Dress from Maison de Belle is one of those magical pieces that somehow feels both effortlessly relaxed and beautifully refined. Cut in the most flattering floating midi silhouette, it skims the body without clinging, making it a dream shape for all sizes. Crafted from breathable 100% organic cotton and created using fabric off-cuts that would otherwise go to waste, this is conscious fashion at its most joyful.

The vibrant pink print instantly lifts your mood — exactly the kind of colour we’re always drawn to at Wardrobe at The Cross. Elegant without trying too hard, this is the sort of dress you’ll wear on holiday with sandals, to lunch with wedges, or layered into winter with boots and chunky knits. The softly smocked back waist creates shape while keeping the fit comfortable and easy to wear all day long.

Features

• Crafted from 100% organic cotton
• Sustainably made using repurposed fabric off-cuts
• Ethically produced by skilled artisans in India
• Floaty midi/maxi length silhouette
• Tiered skirt for beautiful movement
• Smocked back waist for comfort and shape
• Elasticated cuffs for an easy relaxed sleeve
• Flattering V-neckline that isn’t too low
• Elegant back split detail at the nape of the neck
• Bra-friendly design
• Lightweight, breathable cotton perfect for warmer weather
• Easy to layer through the colder months
• Generous fit throughout

Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a gentle cool cycle
• Wash inside out to preserve the vibrancy of the print
• Do not tumble dry
• Cool iron if needed
• Hang to dry naturally

As this piece is made using natural fibres and artisan printing techniques, slight variations only add to its charm.

Size Guide

The Philippa is designed to be a generous, relaxed fit with soft shaping through the waist thanks to the smocked back panel. The cotton has no stretch, but the relaxed cut and shirring make it incredibly comfortable to wear.

• Sue is 5’0” and a standard UK size 6 — she wears the Extra Small comfortably with plenty of movement.

• Hil is 5’3” and a standard UK size 10/12 — she would choose the Small for the perfect relaxed-but-polished fit.

If you prefer a neater silhouette, you could size down in this style. If you love a floaty, bohemian feel, stay true to size.

General Rule: With beautifully crafted cotton pieces like this, the fabric will soften more and more with wear, becoming even lovelier over time.

Why We Love It

We love a dress that makes getting dressed feel easy while still making a statement — and the Philippa does exactly that. The silhouette is unbelievably flattering, the colours are pure joy, and the breathable organic cotton makes it wonderfully wearable, especially during warmer months or those days when comfort really matters.

We also adore the ethos behind Maison de Belle — thoughtfully designed contemporary pieces brought to life by artisans in India using ethical production methods and sustainable fabrics. The fact this dress has been created using rescued off-cut fabric makes it feel even more special.

Styling Suggestions

Hil’s Look – Polished Summer Glam: Hil would style the Philippa with a raffia wedge, gold jewellery, oversized sunglasses and a bold lip for summer lunches or garden parties. When the weather cools, she’d add a fitted blazer or cropped knit with tan leather boots.

Sue’s Look – Relaxed Boho Layers: Sue would wear this with chunky trainers or stacked ankle boots and layer it under an oversized coat with a beanie when the temperature drops. She also loves the idea of adding a slim black roll-neck underneath in winter for that slightly Saint Laurent-inspired layered look.

For summer though? It really is perfect exactly as it is — just add sunshine and sandals.
