Broderie Anglaise Dresses

Our broderie anglaise dresses are crafted from a classic fabric with a distinctive texture and feminine feel. The unique lacy effect is achieved by combining cutwork with embroidery, resulting in eyelets emphasised by intricate stitching. Explore our collection to find everything from stylish minis to everyday midi dresses and ankle-skimming maxis.

Broderie anglaise is a versatile material with plenty of character, which is why broderie shirts and broderie tops are always on trend. We’ve used it to create smart and casual dresses that can take you from work to the weekend. When you’re off to a party or searching for the ideal wedding outfit, turn to dresses made with all-over broderie. If you want to wear the look to the office, opt for a neat shift with a hint of broderie at the hem or neckline. On days off, when a modern take on the timeless tea dress is called for, pair a floral embroidered design with a bomber or women's denim jacket.   

Thanks to the characteristic eyelets, broderie anglaise dresses are naturally breathable. Got a day at the beach planned? Pack a lightweight cotton or linen broderie tunic or shirt dress in your tote bag and pull it on over your swimwear when you want to cover up but stay cool. Details such as scalloped edges emphasise the decorative nature of the fabric. To complete the ensemble, pull on a sun hat in a coordinating shade, then sit back and relax in style.
