Each size covers two dress sizes, so choose the one that includes your usual size. Between sizes?
Alessia is MELYR's relaxed-fit midi dress in 100% Lyocell chambray, with a soft collar and bib front, dropped shoulder, turn-back sleeve, deep side seam pockets and a curved shirt hem with side splits. It comes with a removable self-fabric tie belt and is dual sized, so each size covers at least two dress sizes. Machine washable.
Some dresses look right in the changing room and wrong by the time you get them home. Alessia is the other kind.
The bib front holds a little structure across the chest, and below it moves freely. Nothing clings across your stomach. Nothing pulls across your back where a bra strap sits. The turn-back sleeve is cut long enough to cover the upper arm and stays where you put it. The pockets are set into the side seams, deep enough for a phone and your keys, and they don't interrupt the line of the dress. All of that was designed in, not hoped for.
Lyocell moves like silk, fluid and floating over the body, but washes at 30 degrees like the low-maintenance fabric it actually is. It breathes when the day turns warmer than promised, and it drapes rather than clings, whatever the weather is doing.
The belt is a suggestion, not a rule. Wear it loose and floaty over swimwear. Tie it in for waist definition. Swap it for a slim snaffle belt or woven leather when you want it sharper in the evening. One dress, many ways to wear it.
Designed by a woman who wanted a dress she could stop thinking about. Photographed on real women, in the sizes we actually sell.

Why Alessia
Designed in, not hoped for
i.
Structure in the bib
The bib front gives the dress a little structure at the top, and the rest falls loose and easy from there.
ii.
Pockets that keep the line
Deep pockets sit in the side seams, so the line of the dress stays clean.
iii.
Seen on real women
Every dress is photographed on real women, so you can see how it falls before you choose.

How does Try Before You Buy actually work?
Choose Try Before You Buy at checkout and we place a hold on your card for the full amount, nothing is taken. You've got 3 days from delivery to try them properly: sit down, walk around, wear them for a real afternoon. Tell us what's staying through the link in your confirmation email, and we'll charge you for those only. Everything else goes back with the prepaid label already in the box. Returning the lot carries a small £6 restocking fee. Card payments only, since the hold needs a real card behind it.
