Cotton Maxi Dresses at M&S

For a breezy feel and flattering fit, explore the women’s cotton maxi dresses from our collection. We have stylish looks for casual and formal occasions. Expect modern pieces from Superdry and Monsoon, alongside party-ready designs from Ted Baker and Ro&Zo. Comfy fabrics mean these dresses are naturally breathable and easy to care for – just like our linen maxi dresses.

Among our maxi dresses, you’ll find cotton options in your favourite cuts that feature ankle-length or floor-sweeping hems. Think shirt dresses with neat long sleeves, generous skirts and self-tie belts, as well as tiered dresses and halterneck slip silhouettes. Styles made from lightweight materials are cool and airy. Elegant drape comes courtesy of tailored ponte dresses or columns crafted in heavy jersey.

To suit all skin tones, our ladies’ cotton maxi dresses come in a rainbow of colours, from fresh whites to jewel brights. Slip yours on with coordinating or contrasting women’s cardigans. If you want extra interest, opt for a statement floral print, classic polka dots or dresses with stripes in contrasting colours.

Linen dresses and cotton dresses make an inspired choice when you’re packing for a holiday. Browse our selection of beach frocks to pick textured options with jacquard or seersucker weaves. Wide-sleeved kaftans and broderie cover-ups dry quickly, so are ideal for slipping over your swimsuits. In the evening, style yours up with metallic sandals and statement jewellery. Want to try out some different lengths? Discover our thigh-skimming cotton mini dresses and cotton midi dresses that fall just below the knee.
