Longline swing hem tunic or sweater-dress
Swing dress or tunic: sleeveless, A-line, versatile and great for layering
Product details
A wool-silk knitted swing dress in a pull on, pull off style
Versatile, flattering and great for layering
Deep armholes & neckline
Two carefully chosen complementary yarns are knitted together to achieve the subtle colour tones, and no two are ever quite alike
See below for fibre content, garment care, sizing notes and stock info

Free standard UK delivery on all full price items
Flattering to different body shapes and sizes, these tunic-dresses helpfully skim over the bits we want skimmed over! Comfortable to layer over thick jumpers/sweaters when it’s cold, because of the deep armholes and neckline. Elegant over thinner tops when it’s warmer. Wear as a tunic over trousers or leggings, or as a sweater-dress.

Who can wear my wool-silk swing dresses?
these dresses are a flowy flattering style so they are good for most body shapes as they skim over the ‘lumps and bumps’(!)
they are flattering if you have an ‘apple’ body shape - that is, if you have a less defined waist, and/or perhaps a longer waist - because these dresses have longer fuller skirts
in my case I’m the classic British pear shape - narrow shoulders and wider hips - so I absolutely love wearing my swing dresses as they disguise the bits I prefer to keep hidden…
How to wear my wool-silk swing dresses?
the deep armholes and v neckline make it easy to layer these over polos and other warmer tops in autumn/winter, but also comfortable to wear over a silky blouse
wear it as a dress over a camisole
layer it over another (longer) dress
wear as a tunic over trousers, leggings, or thick tights
dress it up with jewellery and chic sandals or down with chunky sneakers or trainers
