This dress by British designer Freda Bennet is a stunning, classic A-line gown from her Spring/Summer 2024 collection.
It features a flattering square neckline with elegant wide shoulder straps, a beautifully nipped-in waist, and a full princess skirt that flows effortlessly. The skirt also includes hidden pockets, a rare and very practical detail.
The dress is made from luxurious, high-quality Mikado fabric. I chose the shiny Mikado rather than the textured version, giving the gown a refined, elegant finish. The fabric captures the light beautifully and looks absolutely amazing in photos.
