FAQs
Is this dress true to UK sizing?
This dress runs close to standard UK sizing. The H-line (straight) silhouette sits evenly across the bust and hips without tapering at the waist — check your bust measurement against the size guide below.
What is an H-line silhouette?
An H-line silhouette is a straight, column-like cut where the dress has a consistent width from shoulder to hem with no waist definition. It creates a clean, unfussy shape that's comfortable and versatile across different body types.
Can I wear this dress to work?
Depending on your office dress code — the stripe polo tee dress works for casual and smart-casual offices. Add a blazer for a more office-appropriate look. It's not suitable for formal or corporate environments.
Does the stripe pattern have a specific direction?
The stripes run horizontally across the dress body — classic preppy horizontal stripes in a contrasting two-colour pattern.
What footwear works best with this dress?
Clean white trainers are the most natural match for the polo tee aesthetic. Block-heeled ankle boots or chunky platform trainers are the smartest casual options. Avoid very delicate heels which work against the sporty character of the dress.
