Striped Ruffle Placket Shirt Dress

Fine vertical stripes run the length of this easy shirt dress, drawn in at a high seam so the skirt falls loose from just under the bust. A small stand collar tops a buttoned placket edged with a narrow ruffle, and the three-quarter sleeves finish with a matching frill at the cuff. The fabric is light and slightly textured, cool against the skin and forgiving in the heat. The cut is generous through the body with plenty of swing in the skirt. Add a straw bag and flat sandals for holidays and warm weekends.
