Belted Ruffled Midi Shirt Dress

This midi dress is designed for a floaty silhouette – it has long, billowy sleeves and ruffles that border the grandad collar and placket. Printed with brown and black gingham checks, it's made from a more sustainable TENCELTM Lyocell blend and has a slightly loose fit with a tonal belt to cinch the waist. Dress it up with heeled sandals.

• 66% TENCELTM Lyocell, 34% Cotton

A brand whose aesthetic has been so influential that it’s hard to remember what went before. But when COS launched in 2007 against a backdrop of fast, trend-led fashion, its focus on minimal pieces at accessible prices was a breakthrough moment. With a focus on style over trend, it heralded a new era for interesting, modern, considered design and changed our wardrobes for the better, forever.
