A white dress here can be a cosy knit for chilly afternoons or breezy cotton linen for warm weekends. Pick a hooded longline style, a collared jumper dress or a belted shirt dress. Each one pairs easily with ankle boots, clean trainers or flat leather summer sandals.
A knitted white dress for cooler days
Most of the knits here come in bright white, so they look fresh against a dark coat, black tights and boots. The Trieste oversized hoodie dress is longline, with side slits that let it move freely when you walk or climb the stairs. Its hood and relaxed shape make it the comfiest choice for errands and coffee with friends. Add a puffer and chunky trainers and you are ready in a minute, or swap to knee boots for a smarter take.
Collars and contrast details
The collared knitted jumper dress has a neat shirt-style neckline that looks smart at a desk and comes in brown as well as white. The contrast collar knitted dress adds a darker trim at the neck for a schoolgirl-smart look. Both are white knit long sleeve styles, so they keep the arms warm without a cardigan on a cool day. Black tights and loafers finish them nicely, and a long navy coat makes them ready for a frosty commute.
Colour block knit
The colour block knitted dress uses contrasting panels for a graphic effect and is offered in white, black or carbon grey. It draws the eye in a flattering way and suits a city lunch or a gallery visit with friends. Wear it with ankle boots and a long black coat for a sharp city look. Keep jewellery minimal so the blocks stay the focus, perhaps a slim watch and small hoops.
From Maria & Denis
Ladies casual white dresses for warm weekends
When it warms up, we fold the knits away and swap them for cotton linen in the lightest shades. The cotton linen shirt dress buttons down the front and works for a garden party or a relaxed day at the office. The cotton linen dress has handy pockets and an easy shape that never feels tight in the heat, and it comes in eight other colours. Both breathe well on sticky afternoons and feel cool against the skin on a long train journey.
How we style them
Knit versions look lovely with chunky ankle boots, a long camel coat and gold jewellery on a crisp weekend. Cotton linen pieces suit flat sandals, a straw bag and a denim jacket over the shoulders on a summer evening. When the air cools, we add a navy cardigan or a light trench over the top. White also makes a tan look deeper, which we always enjoy on holiday by the sea.
Caring for white and choosing your fit
Wash white pieces separately on a cool cycle to keep them bright, and dry them in the shade so the colour does not yellow. Before you order, measure a dress you already own and compare it with the size chart on the product page. Every UK order comes with free delivery. If the dress is not quite right, you can send it back within 30 days for a refund.
Frequently asked questions: Women's White Dresses
What colour shoes go with a white dress?
Almost any colour works, which is the joy of white. Tan or brown ankle boots warm up the knitted styles, black boots give the Trieste hoodie dress a city feel, and clean white trainers keep the cotton linen shirt dress relaxed. For a summer party, flat sandals in nude or gold look fresh and easy.
Can you wear a white dress to a hen do?
Often the bride is the one in white, so check with her or the organiser first. If the group is asked to wear white, the belted cotton linen shirt dress is an easy pick for a daytime lunch or garden party. For a cooler evening, a white knitted jumper dress with ankle boots feels cosy and still looks polished.
How do you get a stain out of a white dress?
Act quickly. Blot the mark with a clean cloth instead of rubbing, then rinse it from the back of the fabric with cold water. After that, wash the dress as the care label says, because the knitted and cotton linen pieces need different treatment. Let it dry fully before you judge the result.
Is a white knitted dress warm enough for winter?
Yes, the knit styles are made for cool weather. The Trieste hoodie dress is oversized and longline with a hood, while the collared and contrast collar jumper dresses are knitted in cotton. Add opaque tights, ankle boots and a long coat, and a white knit dress is comfortable on a cold British afternoon.
