Kimono dress – airy, feminine and surprisingly versatile
The kimono dress is one of those pieces you keep reaching for. Light, fluid and elegant, with just enough length to feel comfortably covered. Made from beautifully woven hamam cotton, it feels soft, drapes naturally and dries quickly.
You can wear a kimono dress at the beach, to the sauna, on holiday or simply at home on a relaxed day. Many models are suitable for multiple sizes, making them flattering on both smaller and fuller body shapes.
