A timeless dress you'll love reaching for
There's something lovely about finding a dress that makes getting ready feel simple. One that looks thoughtful and put together, without needing much effort. That's exactly what we had in mind when we chose our Beatrix Classic Plaid Shirt Dress.
With its beautiful plaid pattern, flowing silhouette and classic button front, Beatrix brings a little vintage charm to everyday dressing. It's the kind of piece you can wear for a leisurely lunch, an afternoon in town or a weekend spent with friends. Comfortable, feminine and easy to make your own.

Classic plaid that never goes out of style
We have always had a soft spot for clothing that feels just as lovely today as it will a few seasons from now. Beatrix has that timeless quality, thanks to its traditional plaid pattern and smart lapel collar.
The button front gives the dress a familiar, tailored touch, while the flowing shape keeps the overall look relaxed. It's a beautiful balance between everyday comfort and the kind of understated elegance we love at Linda & Paul Toronto.
A relaxed silhouette that feels easy to wear
One of our favourite things about Beatrix is its easygoing shape. Rather than following every curve, the flowing silhouette falls naturally for a relaxed, feminine appearance. It gives the dress a lovely sense of movement without looking oversized or shapeless.
The soft, lightweight feel makes it a practical choice for everyday wear, while the classic shirt dress design offers plenty of styling possibilities. Add boots and a cardigan when the air turns crisp, or keep things simple with comfortable flats and your favourite handbag.
For the best fit, we always recommend checking the size guide before ordering. If you enjoy a little more room in your dresses, take your preferred fit into account when choosing your size.

A dress for the moments that make up your day
For a relaxed weekend brunch: Pair Beatrix with comfortable ankle boots, simple jewellery and a small crossbody bag. An easy outfit that still feels beautifully put together.

A little note from us
Make Beatrix your own
We love the way Beatrix looks worn loose and flowing, but you can also style it with a favourite belt if you prefer a little more definition at the waist.
Please note: The belt shown in some styling photographs is not included with the dress.
Frequently asked questions
Does the Beatrix Dress come with a belt?
No, the belt shown in the styling photographs is not included. You can wear Beatrix loose for a relaxed look or add a belt of your own.
Is Beatrix suitable for autumn?
Absolutely. The classic plaid pattern works beautifully with autumn colours. Pair it with boots, a cardigan or a coat when the weather becomes cooler.
Is the dress fitted around the waist?
Beatrix has a relaxed, flowing silhouette rather than a closely fitted shape. For more definition around the waist, you can style it with your own belt.

We recommend checking the measurements in our size guide before placing your order. This will help you choose the fit that feels most comfortable for you.
