A modern spin on Victoriana style Daphne dress has a figure-flattering hook-and-eye bodice (which can be worn open or closed at the neck), gathered detailing, and a full peplum skirt. A joy to wear thanks to the soft cotton corduroy, elasticated back and easy fit through the hips, this season we have shortened it slightly, so it works just as well for polished day wear as it does for dressier dates.
