First Light Cream Lace Panelled Maxi Dress
A Closer Look
The First Light Cream Lace Panelled Maxi Dress captures the elegance of a bygone era in an off-white hue that feels both timeless and fresh. Delicate floral lace inserts run through the waistband, cuffs and skirt panels, while soft cotton trim frames the rounded neckline. Balloon sleeves with covered button cuffs add a touch of romance, and a cotton-lined skirt ensures comfort and coverage.
Perfect for sun-drenched afternoons or candlelit evenings, this maxi dress pairs beautifully with boots, a printed headscarf and layered jewellery. As the seasons shift, it works just as well with the Folklore Whipstitch Embroidered Jacket or Autumn Bloom Floral Faux Leather Jacket for a richer, autumnal feel.
With its flowing silhouette and intricate detailing, it’s a piece you’ll reach for when you want to look effortlessly captivating.
