Berthelemine Double-Breasted Midi Dress

Berthelemine is a double-breasted midi dress, and it runs XS through 4XL, eight sizes. Double-breasting on a dress is unusual: the second column of buttons and the deeper overlap borrow directly from tailoring, which gives it a far sharper front than a plain shift.

Four colourways. White, black and navy blue are the three sharp neutrals. Mulberry is the reason to look, a deep purple-red that reads richer than burgundy and appears almost nowhere else in the collection.

Sizes run XS through 4XL, which is a wide grade for a structured dress, since tailored shapes are harder to grade than loose ones. A midi sits below the knee, which keeps it appropriate for an office. The chart below gives body measurements in inches.

• Silhouette: midi dress
• Closure: double-breasted button front
• Colourways: White, Black, Navy Blue, Mulberry
• Sizes: XS to 4XL
• Care: machine wash cold, hang dry, steam rather than iron so the button placket stays flat

Measurements are approximate body measurements in inches. Cut close through the bust, so size up if you are between sizes.
