There's a dress that works from the airport to the beach dinner without stopping to change. The Amarina is that dress. A relaxed, floor-length shirt-dress silhouette in soft linen-cotton — collar open, short sleeves rolled, a deep V framed by dark botanical embroidery that runs from neck to chest. The kind of detail that makes a plain maxi look like it came from a boutique in the south of France.
"The embroidery on the Amarina is the reason I added it. It follows the V-neckline exactly — branches running along both sides of the opening — and it's the one thing that takes a beige linen dress from basic to something you'd actually want to be photographed in. I've worn this style of dress for years and the detail placement here is better than most. Pack it. You'll wear it every day." — Sarah Mitchell, Founder of Valora New York
✔ Botanical Embroidered V-Neckline — a dark floral branch embroidery that traces both sides of the deep V from collar to chest. The handcraft detail that makes a simple linen silhouette read as considered and boutique-quality.
✔ Open Shirt Collar — a relaxed, spread collar that frames the embroidery and the neckline without stiffening. The collar that works open on the beach and styled with layered necklaces for an evening out.
✔ Short Rolled Sleeves — a short sleeve with a natural cuff roll that adds casual ease and keeps the dress cool through a full day in warm weather.
✔ Relaxed A-Line Floor-Length Silhouette — a straight, loose body that falls from shoulder to ankle without cinching at the waist. The shape that flatters across body types and moves freely with every step.
✔ Chest Patch Pocket — a single patch pocket at the left chest that adds a utilitarian detail and a resting place for a hand or a phone without disrupting the embroidery.
✔ Five Colorways — cream, olive green, sky blue, black, yellow. From sun-washed neutrals to saturated summer tones — each version of the embroidery lands differently against the base color and all five work from spring through fall.
Linen body. Embroidered collar. The vacation dress that earns its place in every bag you pack.
We offer free tracked shipping on all UK orders. Orders are processed within 1–2 business days, and you'll receive a tracking link by email as soon as your order ships.
Changed your mind? No problem. You can return your order within 30 days of delivery, as long as items are unworn, unwashed and have their original tags attached. Simply reach out via our contact page and we'll guide you through the process.
We want you to love every piece you order. If you're not completely happy with your purchase, you can return it within 30 days of delivery for a full refund — no questions asked. Once we receive your return, your refund is processed within 5–7 business days to your original payment method.
To keep your dress looking its best, we recommend a gentle machine wash at 30°C or a cold hand wash. Wash inside out with similar colours, and avoid bleach and fabric softener. Do not tumble dry — hang or lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. If needed, iron on a low setting or use a steamer for a smooth finish.
Find Your Size
Buying a dress online means trusting a photograph — and we know that takes a little faith. So we've made this page as clear as we can, and made it easy to put right if the size isn't quite there.
Take two minutes with a tape measure before you order. It's the single best way to get it right first time.
How to Measure
You'll need a soft tape measure and, ideally, someone to help. Measure over your underwear rather than clothing, and keep the tape snug but never tight — you should be able to slip a finger underneath.
Bust — around the fullest part of your bust, with the tape level across your back.
Waist — around the narrowest part of your natural waist, usually just above the belly button. Don't hold your breath in.
Hips — around the fullest part of your hips and bottom, roughly 20 cm below your waist.
Length — this is how we measure the dress itself, from the shoulder seam straight down to the hem. Compare it against your own height to picture where it will fall.
Size Chart
All measurements are in centimetres and refer to body measurements, not the garment.

A Few Notes on Fit
Go by your measurements, not your usual size. High-street sizing varies wildly from shop to shop. The chart above is the honest version — it's what will actually fit you.
Between two sizes? Take the larger one. Our dresses are designed to skim rather than cling, and a fraction of extra room always reads better than a fraction too little. If the bust and hips point to different sizes, size for the bust — waists and hips are far more forgiving in these cuts.
Check the length. Our dresses are cut long. If you're petite, look at the length measurement against your own height so you know exactly where the hem will sit.
Still unsure? Tell us your measurements and we'll tell you which size to order. We'd far rather spend two minutes helping you choose than have you send a dress back. Email support@graceandanne.com — we usually reply the same day.
If It's Not Quite Right, We'll Sort It
You shouldn't have to gamble on a size. If the dress arrives and the fit isn't there, you have 14 days to exchange it for a different size — no explanation needed, no awkward questions.

- Email support@graceandanne.com with your order number and the size you'd like instead.
- We'll send you the return details straight away.
- Post the dress back to us, unworn and with the tags still on.
- Your new size goes out as soon as your return is on its way.
If we've sold out of the size you need, we'll refund you in full — no waiting, no store credit you didn't ask for.
You also have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving it for a full refund, in line with UK consumer law. Full details are on our Returns & Refunds page.
