Baxtor Off the Shoulder Midi Dress - White/Black

A ribbed knit midi dress that sits off the shoulder and still takes the sleeve all the way to the wrist — the Baxtor runs two ideas at once and lets neither win.

The knit is ribbed and cut with stretch in it, so the dress follows the body rather than imposing a shape on it. A white stripe design runs through the black ground and keeps the surface from reading as one flat block. The neckline sits wide and off the shoulder; the long sleeves cover the arm completely. It comes unlined, so what you feel is the ribbing itself.

Bare shoulders, covered arms, a hem at mid-calf: that combination places this midi dress more easily than most, at dinner and at drinks after work alike. The stretch means it forgives a long evening. Keep jewellery small, since the neckline is already doing the talking, and let the shoe decide how formal the night gets.
