It feels as though every time summer rolls around, I find myself on the hunt for a great dress. For years, I’ve searched for the kind of piece that can be pulled out for both daytime and evening looks, with a timeless appeal, versatility in styling and of course, a brilliant shade. With every summer, I find pieces that come close to hitting all my requirements. Finally, I’ve found a dress that can do it all, and comes with an affordable price tag. As I’m not one to gatekeep, it’s time to talk about the Nobody’s Child Felicity Bandeau Midi Dress.
As a brand that is known for excellent dresses, alongside an array of other standout fashion buys, Nobody’s Child was one of the first places I looked to find this elusive, perfect summer dress. Whilst my wish list filled up with all the pretty offerings, the Felicity dress stood out for all the reasons above. The first to catch my eye was the deep blue shade, then came the rainbow of other colour options, including a buttery yellow, trending polka dots and various other prints that truthfully make choosing just one pretty tricky.
What brings me back to Nobody’s Child is the considered design details. The ruched top flowing into an a-line skirt is a tried and true classic shape that always looks so high-end. Alongside, there are smaller thoughtful details, such as pockets (who doesn’t love declaring “it has pockets!” any time they get a dress compliment) as well as the detachable straps. Whilst designed to be an elegant bandeau dress, those who prefer a strap have the choice. The dress and lining are both made of 100% cotton, a breezy fabric to suit the warmer days.
The final thing to sell me on this dress was seeing it on Raquel, Rita and Costana. Immediately, I began counting down the days until my next holiday, when I too could stroll down cobbled streets with a pair of sandals and a basket bag the only accompaniment needed to create an elegant summer’s day look. I then thought of an upcoming wedding I have, and how a pair of metallic mules and a clutch bag can bring this dress into a more elevated sphere. Now, I’ve bookmarked this dress for a variety of day and evening occasions in my summer calendar.
