Alessandra Rich Midi Dresses: The House Length, Priced

It is where the polka dot lives, it is the length the Princess of Wales wears to services, and it is the cut that carries the house’s defined waist and contrast collar best. Luxury Handbags has 43 Alessandra Rich midi dresses on sale from $2,310 to $4,770, and this guide sorts them by fabric and occasion, with the fit note for each cut.

The polka-dot midis

The house classic. Black and white with a contrast collar, cream and bordeaux with a lace collar, blue with a high neck, and the variations with a pleated skirt, a bow, a split, a ruffle. These are the dresses in the Princess of Wales’s wardrobe. Every colourway is priced here.

The silk and satin midis

Plain silk in pale yellow, aqua blue, pink and purple, with ruffles, a bow, a peplum, a lace detail, an open back. The dresses for a guest who wants the cut without the print; a silk satin midi with a bow is the cocktail version.

The florals

Floral-print silk taffeta and crepe de chine on white, cream, pearl grey and black grounds, with ruffles and V-necks. The summer wedding and garden party midis.

Cady, jacquard and wool crepe

Cady with a lace trim and splits for a sharper evening midi; silk jacquard with puff sleeves for a woven surface; light wool crepe with a V-neck and jewelled buttons for the daytime dress that goes to the office.

Styling the midi

A pointed slingback pump in the ground colour, bare legs from late spring, a small structured bag, one pair of earrings. The styling guide works through it; the house’s own slingback and mules are in the shoes guide.
