Jessie Ware's ivory embroidered Rixo dress is the epitome of elegant summer dressing – and it's firmly on my wishlist
From garden parties to summer holidays, this beautiful design does it all
Nothing quite beats a breezy white dress in warmer weather, especially when it features delicate embroidery and vintage-inspired design details. And after spotting Jessie Ware wearing one of Rixo's best summer dresses, I have found my latest wishlist piece.
In an Instagram video from her podcast Table Manners, she wears the Amari embroidered linen-blend dress by the British clothing brand. And not only is its design beautiful, but it's such a versatile piece too.
From sunny evenings out to holiday lunches, her dress would work for a range of dress codes. And I love how she's kept the styling simple too, with flatform flip-flops and gold hoops, creating the ultimate smart-casual outfit.
Made from a breathable linen blend, this dress will be a beautiful addition to your summer capsule wardrobe. It features delicate floral embroidery on the shoulders and chest that makes it feel especially sopshisticated.
Fast to become a pair you rely on every day, these gold vermeil earrings are endlessly versatile. Working for both casual and special occasions, there's nothing they won't elevate.
The perfect way to add subtle height to your silhouette without discomfort, these sandals are a practical yet stylish choice when it comes to what to wear in the heat.
A classic addition to your summer wardrobe, this white-collared midi dress combines elegance with an easy-to-wear design. It has floral lace panelling and pintuck details.
With an artisanal feel, this dress features beautiful embroidered details set on a white cotton fabric. It also has a flattering silhouette with short puff sleeves and a long flowing skirt.
This white summer dress is made from a breezy linen blend fabric for a lightweight finish. The feminine embroidery and lace trim add to its charm.
Jessie's specific dress stands out thanks to its thoughtful details. It's cut into a flattering midi silhouette and finished with delicate embroidery, giving the ivory design a craft-like feel. It's made from a linen blend, so the fabric is breathable and lightweight, making it perfect if in rising climes.
Embroidered, crochet or lace details have been a key spring/summer fashion trend for 2026, seen on everything from floaty dresses to blouses, nodding to a desire to return to slower design practices in fashion.
And although Jessie styled hers with sandals, there are plenty of ways to make this dress look even more elevated for special occasions. Style with some wedge espadrilles like this pair by Holland Cooper if you are set to attend a garden party or for a fancy dinner reservation this season.
