Ruched Cut-Out Stretch-Woven Midi Dress

Selfridges Says: In the last few years, the fashion industry has seen comfort rising to the front and centre of the design process. Just look to Self-Portrait's recent collection for proof. Paring things down from frothy fairytale silhouettes to slinky, sensual shapes, the brand dreams up this midi dress. Whipped up from soft stretch-jersey, it flows over your curves to finish just above the ankles – and is kept simple save for the skin-baring cut-out and ruching down the front.

• 80% polyamide, 20% elastane
• Ref: R04230784

Self-Portrait is all about creating feminine clothes, embellished with lace, leather and details that reveal their street style influences. Their collection of cool modern classics spans tailoring to accessories, but it's the dresses that steal the show.
