A softer way to wear print

The Loobie's Story Batika Midi Dress combines a softly shaped silhouette with a print that does much of the work. Rather than relying on a belt or a closely fitted waist, the dress uses a shaped waist seam and elastic through the back to create definition while retaining ease.

The V neckline keeps the upper body open and gives the floral print a clean break at the neckline. From there, the bodice follows the body into the shaped waist seam before falling into a fluid midi-length skirt.

The print mixes soft pink, blush, coral, ochre and earthy brown with deeper accents and botanical motifs. It has plenty of colour, but the palette is softened rather than overly bright, making it particularly good with neutral shoes and accessories.

The blouson sleeves introduce volume through the arm before gathering into fixed cuffs. Fine picot embroidery provides an additional finish at the cuff without competing with the print.

At the waist, the shaped seam gives the dress its definition, while an elasticated back waist provides additional ease. It is a useful combination if you like some shape through a dress but don't want the restriction of a completely fixed waist.

The outer is made from 100% viscose and the dress is fully lined in 100% rayon, giving the printed outer layer coverage while retaining its fluid appearance.

This is a dress for occasions when you want print and femininity without fuss — defined enough to feel dressed, but with ease built into the waist and movement through the skirt.

Why it works

  • Shaped waist seam provides definition without a belt
  • Elasticated back waist adds ease through the middle
  • V neckline opens the upper body
  • Blouson sleeves balance the longer midi silhouette
  • Fixed cuffs finished with picot embroidery
  • Fluid 100% viscose outer
  • Fully lined in 100% rayon

Fit & Shape

The Batika Midi Dress has a shaped bodice with a defined waist seam and an elasticated section through the back waist. The skirt falls away from the waist into a fluid midi silhouette. Blouson sleeves gather into fixed cuffs for gentle volume through the arm.
