John Lewis & Partners Linen Collar Shirt Dress

Giving a nod to utility-inspired style, we designed our shirt dress from pure linen for a breezy, lightweight but robust feel. On the flap over patch pockets at the chest, we added box pleating for added detail that slightly softens the utility character, matched by the box pleat through the centre back. Side seam bag pockets keep the boxy shirt shape looking and feeling sleek, while the dipped curved hem enhances the floaty feel. The belt is held in place by side seam tab loops to continue the utility feel while defining your shape.

Try rolling up the sleeves and pairing it with gladiator sandals or heeled mules for a balanced look, or keep it casual with trainers - it's your style foundation.

John Lewis & Partners introduces a new style philosophy focused on individuality, colour and versatility. Each piece is designed to work together and with your existing wardrobe.

Designed in-house, the collection features contemporary clothing and accessories with strong, clean lines. Every season, our designers create distinct colour groups that include both the building blocks of every wardrobe and vibrant stand-out pieces that add a finishing touch.

Empower your personal style and mix, match, tone and clash. John Lewis & Partners: it’s how you wear it.
