An above-knee shirt dress in lightly crinkled cotton gauze, with a point collar, button-front placket and short sleeves rolled and cuffed at the bicep. Two patch pockets sit at the hip, with a curved hem that dips slightly longer at the back for a bit of movement when you turn. The crinkled gauze has texture built into the weave rather than a pressed pleat, so it keeps its slightly rumpled character wash after wash without needing to be ironed. Cut loose and boxy through the body, it's an easy throw-on over a swimsuit or shorts, and works equally well buttoned up on its own for a warm-weather day out.
