Women's Oktoberfest Dirndl Midi Dress with Sage Skirt and Bow Apron

This dirndl midi dress pairs a black bodice with gold trim with a sage green skirt and a black apron tied in a bow, the three pieces a traditional dirndl is built from. The bodice is structured and closes with a laced front, so it holds its shape through a long day rather than softening by the afternoon. The skirt is gathered at the waist for the full silhouette that makes the shape recognisable, and the apron ties over it to set the waist exactly where you want it. It is cut for Oktoberfest and Alpine festivals, but the midi length and the plain finish carry it to a Bavarian-themed wedding or a beer hall dinner just as well.

• Solid Colour: Without a print the cut does the work, which makes it the easiest of the range to restyle with a different blouse or apron.
• Laced Front Bodice: The cord pulls in as much or as little as you need, so the same dress fits across a size either way and stays put once it is tied.
• Midi Length: Mid-calf is the traditional dirndl length and the practical one: it clears the ground at a beer table and works with both flats and a heel.
• Gathered Skirt: Fabric gathered at the waist gives the full, swinging line a dirndl is meant to have, and it skims the hips instead of gripping them.

Fitted bodice with a full gathered skirt; take your usual dress size. Available in sizes XS to 4XL.
