Seraphine Flutter Sleeve Maxi Dress - Umber Taupe

Umber and taupe are the quiet end of brown, and putting a floral print across them produces something far more grown-up than floral usually manages. The neckline is a v, with short flutter sleeves falling over the top of the arm rather than fitting to it. A split at the side opens the skirt as you move. The satin is finished with a sheen, so the colours shift depending on the light in the room, and the dress runs to maxi length and is lined. An invisible zip closes at the back. Flutter sleeves mean you can skip the question of whether your arms are covered, which makes this an easy choice for a long day. A heel, gold at the ear, a bag you can carry without thinking. Wedding guest is the intended use, and the muted colouring is what makes it safe for a ceremony as well as the party afterwards.
