While vibrant florals and bold gingham dresses are having a major moment this spring – and likely into summer, once the temperatures finally settle above 20 degrees– there’s always room in my wardrobe for a classic neutral midi. The chic colour looks great all season long, and for a while now, I’ve had my eye on a version from Nobody’s Child that has thankfully just come back into stock.

The Nobody’s Child Lupin Midi Dress is a warm-weather must-have that’ll slot seamlessly into your dress rotation for seasons to come – and not just because of its French Riviera-esque cream colour way. Crafted from breathable, lightweight linen, this NC staple features an exaggerated drop waist, a softly pleated A-line skirt, and a bow at the back for a timeless yet playful touch.

As for styling the midi, there are really only a few ways to go about it – and that’s a good thing. The dress does all the talking, so your main consideration is footwear: for laid-back days, opt for sandals, and for something more formal, a pair of kitten heels is the obvious choice.

Usually available in eight UK sizes, from 4 to 18, this Nobody’s Child frock flatters a variety of silhouettes thanks to its cinched fit. It’s no surprise, then, that sizes tend to fly in and out of stock, so I’d suggest that if you like this midi, snap it up as soon as you can.
