Shift Dresses

Display easy classiness with one of our women’s shift dresses, designed for effortless dressing on weekdays and weekends. Elegant and easy to wear, shift dresses are cut to skim your body for a clean silhouette that works equally well for the office as it does for evening plans. Choose pieces from top brands like Hobbs and Phase Eight, in sleek black, vibrant tones or playful prints.

Will you be dressing for good weather? Look out for ladies’ shift dresses in breathable materials like cotton – ideal for warmer days. A short-sleeved cotton shift dress is just the ticket for keeping things cool and crisp, especially when teamed with sandals from our women’s holiday shop. Choose sleeveless styles with bold floral patterns or go for refined button-up options in classic neutrals for a minimalist finish. You’ll also find a variety of tailored fits in our plus-size shift dress edit, with details like pintucks, splits and pleats for a flattering finish.

As well as stylish women’s shift dresses, our full dress edit includes skater styles, kaftans and T-shirt dresses from much-loved brands like Sosandar and Monsoon. A black dress with flared sleeves or lace detailing makes a sleek statement for smart-casual events, while a belted design creates gentle shape at the waist. For warmer weather, browse linen dresses with breezy, short-sleeved cuts or colourful embroidery. Complete your look with some dressy high-heel shoes, a compact clutch bag and perhaps a piece or two from our women’s jewellery collection – whether a dainty necklace or a bold pair of hoops.
