Simple. Flattering. No fuss.
If you’ve ever asked “What is a shift dress?” - you’re not alone. And if you’ve never owned one, this might be your sign to try.
A shift dress is an easy wash-and-wear straight-cut dress that skims your body without clinging too tightly. Typically knee-length with clean lines and a relaxed fit, it’s one of the most versatile pieces you can own. Whether you choose a women’s shift dress with sleeves for work or a bright floral print for summer parties, the beauty of a shift dress lies in its ease. Shift Dress is the perfect example of style, the most flattering silhouette and practicality.
Here at By Samantha Melbourne, we’ve taken this timeless shape and added a little magic:
- Soft, stretch jersey for all-day comfort
- Feminine details like scoop necklines and ¾ sleeves
- Functional pockets (yes, we said it again!)
- Waist ties for extra shape
