<-h2->Strappy midi dresses in satin and jersey<-h2-> Somewhere between a slip and an evening dress sit our strappy midi dresses. They come in satin, jersey and finer weaves, in black, ivory, print and deeper colour, with adjustable ties and linings that hold the shape without pulling. A black strappy satin midi with a heeled mule, drop gold earrings and a boxy clutch is a birthday dinner or a summer wedding reception handled. In jersey, with a leather slider and a soft shoulder bag, the same shape reads as daywear on a hot afternoon. Layering is where it earns its keep, since a fine knit over the top or a cotton shirt worn open changes the register entirely, and a belt in the right place sharpens a looser cut. Print styles want plain accessories, while black will take whatever you decide to give it. One shape in satin and in jersey carries a great many occasions, day into evening.
