About This Piece

One customer told us: "I bought it for a wedding and love it on. This is my favourite KT shape with the big skirt but more fitted top and drawstring waist."

A softly structured midi dress made from 100% Dutch wax print. Designed for all-day ease and versatility. The Ori dress features a high-ruffled neckline, hand-stitched pintuck pleats, and an adjustable drawstring waist for a custom fit. A tiered skirt, cover buttons, and deep pockets add function to form.

Before You Order

Will this dress fit true to size?

Yes. Take your usual Kemi Telford size, then use the drawstring to adjust the waist. Serena (31" chest) wears S and Ava (34" chest) wears M. One customer who is 5'4" says the medium fits perfectly.

Does the fabric stretch?

No. It is 100% cotton Dutch wax with no stretch.

Can I adjust the fit myself?

Yes, at the waist. The drawstring can be pulled in for a closer fit or loosened for ease. The pintuck bodice itself is fixed and doesn't adjust.
