The Alexa Midi Dress

We instantly fell in love with this gorgeous cream bib collar midi dress the minute we laid our eyes on it and ASOS HQ loved it too. Unfortunately it never made the ASOS Nov magazine however this means we could pop it up for sale on our boutique much quicker. It ticks all our style boxes with its cutesy embroidered floral detailing on the bid style collar and the gorgeous pleated paneling and tie up front. This truely is a unique vintage midi dress to treasure. Click HERE for more images. We’d team this beauty with a gorgeous faux fur coat, chelsea boots, bowler hat and leather satchel for a gorgeous vintage day look. Love The Annies xoxo
