P|H - Ruffle V-Neck Shift Dress for Women Barbara

A ruffle-trimmed V-neck shift dress for women, made for the whole day from morning errands to dinner out

This is a straight-cut shift dress for women that falls to just about the knee. It suits the days that begin with a school run or a list of errands and end somewhere a little nicer, with no stop at home in between. There is nothing to button or zip, so getting dressed takes a minute.

The V neckline is finished with a narrow ruffle that runs down the front placket, which draws the eye upward and keeps the neckline from sitting flat against the chest. The sleeves are cut long and roll up to a cuff at the forearm, the way they are worn in the photos. Side seam pockets sit at the hip. The straight cut skims past the waist and middle instead of gripping it, so you can sit through a long lunch without tugging anything back into place.

Wear it on its own while the weather holds, then carry it through fall with a cardigan over the top, opaque tights and ankle boots. A belt at the waist turns the same dress into something for an evening. It comes in pink, red, navy, green and royal blue, in sizes S to 3XL.

Barbara is the dress you reach for on the mornings you have not decided anything yet. Keep it at the front of the closet and you will find yourself in it week after week.
