Our weekend wardrobe sorted, Boden’s bestselling shirt dress and 10 others you’ll love, too
The perfect piece to throw on.
The humble shirt dress has evolved from a workwear essential to a true capsule wardrobe hero and here are 11 dresses we have pegged as the most gorgeous to update your summer weekend wardrobe.
A must-have buy, the midi shirt dress truly is the perfect piece all year round but none better than the summertime. Its modest midi-length cut, casual take on tailoring and ease to dress up or down makes the shirt dress a worthy hero piece. Dress up for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show or Wimbledon with heeled wedges, belts and polished bags or dress down by rolling up long sleeves and adding tote bags on the way to a picnic. Available in short and long-sleeve designs, midi shirt dresses are adaptable for any weather, too.
But, which dress to choose? For all out simplicity and effortless elegance, you can’t beat a classic cotton shirt dress. Choosing a relaxed fluid fabric and fun designs instantly takes this workwear staple into weekend territory, and Boden’s selection of printed midi shirt dresses will work perfectly for this. Their Clara shirt dresses have been a bestselling style for years and we can see why. Brought out in multiple prints throughout the year, this breezy linen style is always in stock. Worthy for anything from holiday packing to even that summer wedding. Investing in one of these dresses is a purchase you won’t regret.
