Skater Dresses

There’s a reason that skater dresses have remained a firm favourite in British wardrobes. With their softly fitted bodices and gently flared skirts, these are dresses that move with you and are flattering on the waist. Whether you’re dressing for work, weekends or something more celebratory, a ladies’ skater dress offers a dependable silhouette with a playful twist.

Discover fit and flare dresses in lightweight cotton blends, scoop-neck designs with a retro feel, and pretty corset dresses in floral satin for some old-school romance. You’ll find polka dots with ruffles, sparkly versions ideal for parties, and cupro-rich options for a silky finish with a bit of substance. Add a women’s belt to accentuate the waist, or throw on a women’s cardigan for a more relaxed look.

Women’s skater dresses also lend themselves beautifully to layering. A striped cotton-blend version with short sleeves looks perfectly at home with women’s trainers and a denim jacket. A sleeveless style in a bold colour needs little more than a necklace and a good pair of high-heeled shoes. Look for voluminous skirts, collared styles and soft tassel detailing too. Black dresses in a skater shape always manage to feel pulled-together without losing their ease. Denim dresses with puff sleeves offer a playful nod to vintage styling, especially when paired with white trainers or strappy sandals. For people drawn to colour, striped dresses, soft pastels and bold florals all work well with this classic cut.
