Ludovica | Belted Shirt Dress

A shirt dress with military precision. The split notch collar, chest flap pockets with gold lion-head buttons, and concealed front zip give the bodice a structured, tailored quality that reads smart without being corporate. The A-line skirt is full and mid-length — the kind of silhouette that photographs well and moves comfortably across a full work day without sacrificing polish.

The included belt with a gold ring-buckle hardware sits at the natural waist and cinches the dress into a clear silhouette — wear it buckled for a defined look or remove it for a straighter fall through the skirt. Long sleeves with a rolled tab keep the proportions clean at the wrist. Side pockets in the skirt are generously sized and functional.

Wear to the office with heels and a structured bag, style with flat shoes for a smart-casual daytime look, or layer a fitted knit underneath for cooler months when full sleeves aren't enough.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS

• Split notch collar — sits open at the throat; more interesting than a standard collar and less formal than a full stand collar
• Chest flap pockets with gold lion-head buttons — the hardware detail that elevates this from a plain shirt dress to something more considered
• Concealed front zip placket — clean front face with no visible buttons or zip; the collar and pockets do the visual work
• Included belt with gold ring-buckle — defines the waist cleanly; remove for a straighter silhouette if preferred
• Full A-line midi skirt with side pockets — generous volume through the skirt with functional pockets; comfortable for a full day's wear
• Long sleeves with rolled tab — keeps the sleeve neat at the wrist; the tab allows rolling to three-quarter length
