A Marvellously Floaty Dress for Sunny Days and Smug Appearances
The Linen Ballade Dress is what one might call the sartorial equivalent of a breezy sigh. Equal parts laid-back and rather showstopping, it delivers that elusive 'oh I just threw this on' look, despite the fact you absolutely planned the whole thing. It’s flattering, fabulously made, and, lest we forget, it has pockets. Not to sound dramatic, but perhaps it's the dress your summer wardrobe has been quietly craving.
Why Choose Our Linen Ballade Dress?
- Beautifully Crafted Linen: Woven from 100 percent pure linen, it’s breathable and perfectly suited to anyone who enjoys sunshine without the associated stickiness.
- Luxuriously Soft: Stone washed for that 'worn in by the romantically windswept' feel. Soft enough to nap in, stylish enough to go out in.
- Responsibly Made: Created using OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 and EUROPEAN FLAX certified linen. Good for the planet, superb for your conscience.
Product Details:
- Design: Loose and long with a stretchy top you can wear with or without straps depending on your tan lines or confidence level.
- Details: Those cunningly useful inseam pockets are ideal for concealing phones, lipstick, or emergency biscuits.
- Fit: Model stands at a rather statuesque 175 cm or 5.74 ft and wears size S M for reference. Results may vary, in the most marvellous way.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash gently at 40°C or 100°F. Hand wash if feeling particularly attentive.
- No harsh detergents, please. White versions can handle oxygen based bleach, if you’re desperate.
- Hang to dry for best behaviour. Tumble drying should be brief and low key.
- Iron crisp or wear rumpled for that effortlessly artistic aesthetic.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay
SECURE AS HOUSES
Everything's properly encrypted and secure - your details are safer than the Crown Jewels!
All prices in lovely British pounds £ GBP, though international chaps will see converted prices.

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.
A Curated Marketplace for Independent Ethical Brands
Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.
Sostter is more than a marketplace. We're here to inspire a more thoughtful way to shop — one that celebrates the makers, the dreamers, and the independent brands doing things properly. Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
