Striped Knit Maxi Dress with Polo Collar Placket
This striped knit maxi dress runs horizontal stripes the full length of a ribbed knit column, broken by a polo collar and a contrast button placket that opens into a deep V. A slit up one side keeps it walkable. Three striped colourways, sizes S to XXXL. Imported.
Key Features

How to Wear It
- How far you unbutton the placket sets how deep the V sits.

About This Product
This listing is for one ribbed knit maxi dress in horizontal stripes, with a polo collar, a half-button placket trimmed in a contrast colour and a side slit, in three striped colourways and sizes S to XXXL. The maker has not published a fibre composition for this style, and we will not print a figure we cannot stand behind. Email support@splashis.com before you order and we will request the composition sheet from the factory for you. The maker publishes no finished garment length for this style, so the hemline you see is from the product photographs rather than a measurement. If an exact length matters to you, email support@splashis.com before ordering and we will ask the factory. The maker states that its sizing follows an Asian fit, roughly one to two sizes smaller than US and UK, and that measurements may vary by 2–3 cm because they are taken by hand. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one. Imported. Eligible refund requests are accepted within 30 days of delivery, subject to our Return & Refund Policy.
Who It's For
Best for:
- Casual dressing with a pattern rather than a plain knit
- Anyone who likes a collar on a knit dress
- A wide size range, S through XXXL
- Daytime and weekend wear
How to read horizontal stripes on a full-length dress
The old advice that horizontal stripes widen the wearer is cruder than the truth. What actually matters is stripe width relative to the body and how far the stripes travel: a long unbroken run of fine stripes down a column dress draws the eye vertically along the sequence, while a few wide bands across a short garment do the opposite. This dress uses the first approach, and the contrast placket cuts a vertical line straight down the centre front, which breaks the horizontals at the torso. If you want more of that effect, leave the placket partly unbuttoned so the vertical runs longer.
What to Pair It With
Flat boots or trainers, which is how the photographs style it. A long coat in a plain colour. Keep the bag plain — the stripes are the pattern.
Care Instructions
Wash cool and gently, or hand wash, and reshape it flat to dry rather than hanging it wet — a wet knit stretches under its own weight and a maxi length is heavy. Keep it off a narrow hanger for the same reason; fold it instead. Cool iron only, and never directly on a rib.
