This season we’ve revived our popular Mandarin Drawstring Shirtdress (in bright blue ticking stripe) with a few design tweaks. First, we’ve covered the button placket running from beneath the collar to its straight hem, concealing those mother-of-pearl buttons beneath a thin sheath of striped shirting to match the body of the dress.
Then we extended that mod, white Mandarin Collar to a new 2-inch height for a bit of drama. And have we mentioned those cuffs? Those splendid 5-inch barrel cuffs close with a single button (with two button options that take in or let out the cuff width, however), and lined them with a contrasting solid white shirting.
Cinch it closed at its waist or leave it open and pair it with our fitted white Short Tank Dress or ribbed Take Along Tank beneath. You can make this versatile piece your own in so many ways.
