The Lotta Dress is a wonderfully classic style with a beautifully fitted bodice and full gathered skirt, giving it a softly vintage, feminine shape. Designed with matching V-necklines at the front and back, it feels elegant without being overly formal, making it just as lovely for a summer party as it is for a wedding or special occasion. Choose between small puff sleeves or a completely sleeveless finish, depending on the look you prefer. With its fitted bodice, gathered skirt and glamorous neckline, Lotta is one of those dresses that really lets the fabric do the talking. Sizing: UK 8–20. Please refer to the Find Your Size tab for detailed measurements. Suggested Fabrics: Lightweight cottons, cotton lawn, chambray, silk, taffeta or raw silk all work beautifully. For a slightly different look, you could also try a stretch cotton or ponte roma.
