Buttonquail Dress - Sleepwalker
Buttonquail is back! We debuted this cut in our FW24 collection, and it felt like an instant classic. We've brought it back for FW25 in three beautiful new cotton prints - Parlour, Night Owls, and this stunning fabric, Sleepwalker!
We first used Sleepwalker in our FW21 collection, and I have honestly never gotten over it! If I had to choose my one favourite fabric of all time, this one would be it. It has such a beautiful, gloomy gothic vibe with its rich green nighttime forest scene and full moon. We had it custom re-printed for the season and I'm so happy to have it back in our collection!
Buttonquail dress has a classic Birds cut with an easy-to-wear short sleeved top and knee length pleated skirt with pockets. It closes with a back invisible zipper and is made of 100% cotton with a 100% OEKO-Tex certified cotton voile lining in the skirt.
This dress can be washed on a cold, delicate cycle and hung to dry. Hayley is 5'7" and wears our size 6, and Ruby is 5'10" and wears our size 12. Buttonquail fits true to our size chart, which you can see here. This dress doesn't have any stretch. The skirt, from waist to hem on all sizes, measures 23.5".
