Danika Button Front Maxi Dress - Pink Floral

Buttons that open and pockets that work — the Danika is a floral maxi with a practical streak running right down the middle of it. The front fastens with functional buttons from top to hem, so the dress can be worn closed, or opened at the bottom for an easier stride, or left open over something else entirely. The neckline is square, held by wide adjustable straps that sit flat on the shoulder rather than digging in. The pockets are functional. A floral print covers the cloth, and the dress is lined. Wide straps are a gift: they take the weight of a maxi properly and they let you wear an ordinary bra without negotiation. Keep the shoe flat and let the buttons set the tone — done up to the top for lunch, opened a few from the hem for the walk home. A summer dress you will wear until the print gives out.
