Polyester chiffon, lined, printed with a small vintage floral and cut to long midi: this is the warm-weather half of the guest-dress shelf, and it has the review history to show for it. Flutter sleeves cover the shoulder, the V-neck is cut casual rather than formal, and the waist is smocked the whole way round. Three grounds are stocked and all of them are blue: navy, blue green and lake blue.

What the chiffon floral maxi dress actually does

Polyester chiffon is the fabric that survives a four-hour drive and a hot marquee without a steamer.

1

Polyester that ignores humidity

The fibre is named outright on this model: 100% polyester. It absorbs very little, so it stays light on a hot day and does not hold a crease from a long car journey, which is more than can be said for the alternatives in natural fibres.

2

All three grounds are blue

Navy, blue green and lake blue is the whole colour range. Narrow, but blue is the safe guest colour, and the vintage floral over it stops the dress reading like an office shift in the same shade.

3

Smocking round the full waist

The shirred band wraps the waist completely instead of sitting at the front only. It gives the dress its single fitted point and it absorbs a large meal without complaint, which is the practical half of why it reviews as well as it does.

Fit, honestly

Sizes stop lower here than elsewhere in the group: XL maps to US 14. Simplee calls the fit true to size and suggests taking your usual number. The smocked band gives at the waist and the skirt hangs loose from it. Wash cool on a gentle cycle, no bleach, no tumble dry, cool iron.
