Buttoned-up shirtdresses have served as our cute-meets-conservative go-to for stylish and sophisticated office wear, or even as the base for our casual weekend look when dressed down with the perfect strappy flat sandals.However, considering the summer season’s love affair with floor-length frocks, it was only a matter of time before the shirtdress got the “maxi” treatment itself! Yes, it’s time to make way for super-sized versions of our favorite buttoned dresses, meaning the work shirt is getting even longer! From romantic sheer versions to glamorous printed takes on the trend, it’s hard to resist the style’s knack for mixing business with pleasure! Cinch with a rope belt for extra summer flair, or try pairing with a lightweight blazer for some serious summer power-lunching during office hours!
