The Emanuelle dress from Hush is perfect for indulging in a hearty meal. I’m not referring to everyday meals but rather the kind of feasting that requires comfortable clothing. This dress is ideal for the times when you might over-order at a restaurant, like when my husband and I can’t decide on shared plates and end up with a table full of food. For instance, during a recent dinner at a Thai restaurant, we mistakenly ordered way more than needed, with multiple starters, mains, and even dessert. Thankfully, the Emanuelle dress accommodated this excess because of its clever design.
The dress features a relaxed fit that does not rely on elastic but instead has a smart cut that offers space without looking stretched. It has a dropped waist that discreetly allows for a full belly while maintaining its shape and style. Aside from being practical, it’s also incredibly chic and pairs well with trainers, giving it a stylish yet casual look.
The dress boasts a shirt-like top half and a twirly, feminine lower half, striking a balance between casual and elegant. The prints vary each season, always staying stylish, and the length is perfect, though it might reveal more than you’d like on an escalator with strong winds. It’s also great for breastfeeding, as I discovered by testing with a bag of apples. Overall, it’s a versatile and comfortable dress that I adore.
For anyone interested, the Emanuelle dress is available at Hush for £65. I usually find it true to size but on the generous side, so if you’re choosing between sizes, go for the smaller one.
