L.K. Bennett Purple Bow Waist Pencil Dress UK 12

A beautifully polished L.K. Bennett dress in the most wonderful, confidence-boosting shade of orchid purple. Cut in a timeless pencil silhouette, it has a softly rounded neckline, short cap sleeves and asymmetric pleating that adds subtle interest around the décolletage.

The broad panelled waist is finished with an elegant flat bow detail, while two restrained front pleats give the skirt a little ease without interrupting its sleek line. The lightly slubbed viscose and cotton fabric has an almost linen-like texture, and the dress is fully lined for a smooth, comfortable fit.

Never worn and originally priced at £225, this is an effortlessly elegant choice for a wedding, the races, a special lunch, a summer celebration or any occasion that calls for something beautifully put together.

Why I love this

The colour is glorious—vibrant and feminine without being overly sweet. I especially love the combination of the softly pleated neckline and clever flat bow at the waist. It is unmistakably L.K. Bennett: refined, flattering and wonderfully easy to wear.
