Why our peasant dress is the #1 dress for teachers

Calling all teachers and education gurus! If you’ve been searching for the ultimate dress for work, look no further. Our peasant dress has been the top-selling choice for teachers across Australia since 2010, and yes, we have the data to prove it.

So, why is the peasant dress the reigning champion of the staffroom? Let me break it down for you.

Natural fibres for all-day comfort
Crafted from organically grown linen or a linen and hemp blend, this dress keeps you cool through the Aussie heat or menopause (or both!). No more red face, no fan in hand, just effortless style and comfort.

Practical pockets
Inseam pockets mean you can hand out detentions, carry keys, or if the day calls for it, hide a cheeky gin flask.

Flexibility for your busy day
Bend over backwards for parent-teacher nights or do cartwheels in headmaster meetings without worrying about showing too much. The peasant dress moves with you, no matter what the school day throws at you.

Room for everything and everyone
With its generous cut, there is space for a hearty lunch, sneaky lollies, or even hiding an unexpected bump. Winter layering is easy with wool tights or merino layers. The dress keeps you playground-ready for frosty mornings, snowstorms, or the occasional meteor shower.

Prints that inspire the little ones
Our nature-inspired prints are not just beautiful. They are a hit with the little gremlins you teach every day, we mean kids... of course.

Size inclusive
From XXS to 2XL, everyone can enjoy the perfect fit.

A plus for style, practicality, and sustainability
Do not just take our word for it. Our education friends across the country have spoken. Thank you for making the peasant dress the #1 dress for teachers.
