Pastel Floral Linen Shirt Dress with Crystal Buttons

A second take on our linen shirt dress, in softer pastels — blush, dove-grey, and powder-blue florals on a cream base, with a crystal-and-pearl embellishment running across the collar. Same structured shape and balloon sleeves; quieter colour story. A piece that looks particularly good in afternoon light.

Fabric & feel

Italian linen-cotton blend, ~140gsm. The pastel florals are reactive-dyed for fade resistance. The collar embellishment uses hand-set crystal beads and faux pearls. Decorative crystal-faceted buttons match the collar work. Tonal silver-grey woven belt with crystal-set buckle.

Fit & sizing

Same shirt-dress silhouette as the printed sister piece: button-front, mandarin collar, belted waist, pleated knee-length skirt. Balloon sleeves at the wrist. Sized true through the body with generous sleeve volume.

How to wear it

The pastel palette plays well with nude or champagne accessories — keep jewellery minimal (the collar is doing the work). Wear with a small clutch and metallic heels for a wedding or christening; with flat sandals for a Marie Selby Gardens visit. Cardigan-friendly for cooler venues.

Care

Dry clean for the embellished collar's longevity. Spot-clean the linen body when needed with a clean white cloth and cold water. Steam carefully — direct iron heat can dislodge crystals. Store on a padded hanger with the belt loose.
