Why we made this?
'JOYFUL' MONOCHROMATIC
Our iconic shirt dress ‘Joy’ has a ‘sister’… Allow me to introduce 'Joyful’!! This exquisite dress highlights the beauty of Artisan block printing techniques which are a signature of our brand.
We’ve taken the best bits of our best-selling ‘Joy’ shirtdress (flattering A-line, cinched but comfortable waistline, structured collar and… pockets), and added a few details. Like a fuller, gathered full-length sleeve – which feels very lux. We’ve swapped the classic and slightly more ‘formal’ white collar for a contrast block printed collar. We’ve repeated this contrast border on the self-belt and cuffs and along the centre closure to create a really couture and unique look. It’s understated, chic elegance which, dare we say it… looks way more than its price tag.
NOTE: This item is created using traditional block printing methods and is hand-made by artisans. The 'print' therefore is not always in the same position as shown in these images and can contain minor unique variations.
Style Notes
If you like a more ‘classic’ look, then pair with some simple strappy black heels and a slim clutch for occasion dressing. Emily is wearing gold which sets off the black and gives a dressy look! The more adventurous can add a pop of colour by swapping out the belt and adding some pretty heels. Choose bright pinks, royal blue or red. If a busy day of meetings is on the agenda, pair with a simple kitten-heeled sling back and a structured blazer – Bond-style briefcase optional ;-)
Fit
We’ve worked hard to make sure the sizing is consistent with the average UK brand so take your ‘usual size ‘ as brands like Next, LK Bennet and Boden. Emily is wearing Size 10 / S and is 5ft 6. If you are between sizes, or like a more fitted silhouette, size down in this one! (Fin is 5.2 and wearing the Botanical in XS so you can see how this dress looks on a petite person).

This dress is lovely, great quality and a fab fit. True to size which is like all new day original's dresses which gives me great confidence buying on line with them. I would not hesitate in buying again, I have a small collection of their dresses and love each and every one of them. Great service with quality clothing.
Beautiful rich red and quality material & trimmed with style. Versatile and fits nicely 👌
Highly recommend these dresses.
Absolutely delighted with my dress. Beautiful fit and style. Perfect for holidays and for days of extreme heat at home.
Such a beautiful dress in lovely colours and in cool cotton. I can wear it with or without the belt and the sleeves are also adaptable. It feels gorgeous on.
I loved the way it came so carefully and lovingly wrapped up.
Wore this for a communion as dress up occasion and the next week at the beach with flipflops! Perfect dress for so many occasions!
High quality and most importantly comfy!! Pockets are a game changer in a dress - will be back for more!!
This is such a gorgeous dress. The material is great quality and it feels like a dress I’ll have forever. It is so beautiful and I’m yet to wear it without being complimented. The colours are vibrant, it fits beautifully and it’s also so comfortable to wear.
I bought the Dee Dee dress in the sale, what a bargain, this is not my first purchase from this brand. The dress fits perfectly is well made and great for any spring/summer occasion. I will probably buy again at some point.
This dress was even better than I expected! It was packaged so carefully it felt like Christmas all.over again! The material is super soft and the.style is so complementary to my pear shaped.figure.. It's true to.size and will be a long dress for.me as I'm 5"0 . Don't hesitate to buy!
I absolutely love this dress ~ personally I find it really difficult to find a dress that accommodates my curves and looks feminine ~ this one does just that ~ more please 🙏
Great dress which I styled with a pink cardigan as per one of the pictures. Love it 💝
