Where comfort meets style
"Such a comfortable dress to wear, and it has attracted endless compliments..."










The timeless Celia dress was one of our bestsellers last season, so it's back and now available in our soft washed jumbocord. The relaxed fit, full length sleeves, a soft V neck and hidden side pockets (of course!), all make this a favourite piece you'll be reaching for all season long. Easily dressed up or dressed down with the right layers and accessories.

"Such a comfortable dress to wear, and it has attracted endless compliments..."
"Yet again, a winner from Kate Barton. I love the shade, which is between anthracite and dark pipe tobacco! This dress looks great with boots and sets off my jewellery perfectly. It’s ideal for Spring in Scotland."
"Such a beautifully designed and made dress, which feels soft and comforting to wear when a little extra warmth is called for."
"My first purchase from Kate Barton and it is a great success. The fabric hangs well and it is very comfortable without being too voluminous. Everybody was very helpful and courteous. I have been very stuck finding clothes for a few years and I really like Kate's ethos and she fills a gaping hole in clothes design for people like me!"
"The fabric was beautiful but the dress was too tight around the chest for me. Had to return it."
"As with my other purchases this one’s a winner. Comfy and smart. Bought the so-called navy but it looks black, and the charcoal is really quite dark so a proper navy and softer charcoal would offer a clearer choice and save customers needing to exchange."
"At first I thought it would be too blousy for me and that I needed a smaller size, but with a belt, I have really fallen in love with this dress. It’s so cosy but also elegant and smart."

""I am very pleased with my purchase of the Betsy dress. Great quality. Beautifully packaged with quick delivery.""
"Lovely, warm, jumbo cord dress. Iseal with long sleeves for winter. Flattering style."
