Your essential maxi-length dress – upgraded!

Bamboo is not only an excellent choice for the environment but a comfortable and practical addition to your wardrobe. Bamboo is stronger than cotton, easy to wash, gentle on the skin, and perfect for humid days (it’s 40% more absorbent than even the best organic cotton!) making it impossible not to love this maxi!

Keep it simple and wear it alone for a casual look or use it as a comfortable slip underneath one of our Silk Tops or Dresses, Silk Dusters or Astrid Jackets. Available in a range of colours designed to perfectly compliment all Queen of Everything collections, these bamboo maxi dresses will keep you feeling chic and stylish all year long.

The gentle front scoop neckline and sleeveless bodice still fit the bust and cascades over hips and tummy, making it cool to wear too.

Perfect for everything from an under layer slip  for a silk through to lounging at home in more comfort than your PJ’s

The midi-length really does come to the knee and is a great substitute skirt when worn under one of our silks or casual T-shirts depending on your need.

The Black is a rich version of black – Yes there are many blacks – and is the perfect backdrop to any of the neutrals in the Isabella range.

It’s also the best solution for a casual “little black dress” with one of our raw edge linen jackets

Get in tune with your inner artist.

If you’re attracted to this colourful design, you can thank your artistic streak – we really do all have one! Doesn’t matter if you can draw or not – it’s about your “eye”.

Some of the rules of design cover off on: repetition, scale change, colour theory and depth – and this design has all of these, plus some.

This design has elements reminiscent of everyone from Cezanne to Matisse and many artists in between.

This combination of bright, happy colours stays sophisticated thanks to the layers of design creating a depth that behaves as a backdrop for the highlights of intense pinks, reds, orange and lime.

The background has textures, border repeats and glimpses of patterns.

Whilst black seems an obvious choice for pairing, shocking pink works just as well, if not better!

Be Warned: don’t be wearing this outfit if you want to be a wallflower for the night. This outfit is “putting out there” that you’re up for the fun evening!

This style is a design based on an era in the early ’70s of watching my mother create an oversized, teased “do” and then don her latest geometric maxi creation as she and my dad, -he being clad in a lilac body shirt- complete with sideburns, whisked off to a “Sundowner Pool Party” – a trend that was replicating movies – I’m sure I’ve merged it all in my memory …. Jane Fonda in a maxi length, sleeveless A-line shift in geometric flowers with a big floppy hat – but then I realized – I’m not Jane Fonda – she’s much taller ………. OK – along with a few other details! 

There was something glamorous going on, but being too young to grasp or analyse, I was left with an impression of glamour being colour, print and fun times! This was what inspired our new Patcee dress, however, I wasn’t focused on a summer pool party; hence, a ¾ sleeve with flared cuff was a more elegant option. She is the perfect comfortable, stylish shift dress, with a high collar and V-neck placket in an edible green satin in a solid colour, and of course … pockets!

Confetti print, sophisticated femininity.

First impressions are an autumnal palette in a soft, floaty dress. A scattered patchwork combining ochre, soft khaki and creamy white. Upon close inspection the different tones of these 3, happy together, colours are generated by the patterns making them varying intensities of the same colour. All 3 colours play at being the foreground and background. A really clever design.

The combination of repetitive flower petals and leaves morphing into mini organic painterly dots, in the 3 colours, means the limited palette hangs perfectly together whilst also being far more “interesting” than solid colours, and at the same time reinforcing the autumn feel theme.

There is a freshness and lightness, thanks to the inclusion of the creamy white, whilst offering up an autumnal palette.

Liquid Gold – is the only way to describe this stunning colour.

Whether you are wearing it as a starting point to layering your outfit or the “finishing touch” for your outfit – it is a sublime soft gold.

If you are concerned it’s not ‘your colour ‘– you can easily sort that out by keeping another colour up near your face.

If you are after a formal evening look, grab a black layer, a similar tonal jewel colour such as ruby reds or an assortment of other pale stone/gold.

The light refraction, due to the sheen of the satin, makes this a colour that has multiple colours on its own, so if it’s a sophisticated look you’re after then simplicity is the key.

There is something special about the light refraction on satin fabrics – the multitude of tones as the light catches the different directions of the fabric weave allows for a depth of colour that seems supernatural.

A perfect palette for Autumn – Ochre and Khaki are the perfect pair to get in the mood for the much-anticipated cooling off, after a long hot summer; before we’re looking for cosy winter solutions. 

A soft and sophisticated tone of khaki that sits with most colours – whether it’s other neutrals or contrast “complementary” colours in the ochre, fuchsia or purple tones.

The Khaki is what I call “colourless” – it’s only just looking khaki – not too bright. The lustre of the satin creates multiple tones of itself – letting it then pair with almost any colour.

This colour is sooo beautiful you want to eat it – which is only one of the reasons we’ve named it Raspberry. Usually, talking about red is all about “Fiery Red”, but not this one. There’s no orange base in this colour – she’s a red that is mixed with a pink base. She’s one of those colours that elicits an ‘OO AHH’ from everyone, and makes you want to smell it like a beautiful rose. Better still, there’s no one this tone red doesn’t flatter.
