Beachy Gown Beach Stripe

The Beachy Gown is our super popular midi length floaty shirt dress, with buttons all the way down the front. It has cropped sleeves and a central pleat on the back which makes it cool and airy in the hotter months. Available here in our 'Beach Stripe' print.

This is an incredibly versatile piece, which can just as easily be worn out for lunch or at work, as on the beach or relaxing at home. A hard working item of clothing for your wardrobe and an H&B favourite.

All our fabrics and clothing collections are hand designed in Stroud by Alice and made in Jaipur, India, by our production partners.

Alice says:

"These were based on one of our smocks originally, which we lengthened to create a long gowny shirt. These can be worn open as well as buttoned up to the top, they’re made from light 60s Indian cotton and really are the best thing to wear in the heat, if you go on holiday you need at least three of these in your suitcase! They’re great after swimming, easy in the morning and ideal for evenings - do up the buttons right to the top, for a smarter look. And they also have good pockets for all your bits!"
