Final stock: After 38 years, we're closing the doors of our family boutique, and what's left on the shelves won't be replaced. If "Add to basket" is still showing, the piece is still available — but once it's gone, it's gone.

The linen dress that naturally makes your silhouette look slimmer

Hélène has the easy elegance of a French summer. The long, flowing cut drapes gracefully and skims the silhouette without clinging – it softens the tummy, lengthens the silhouette, and leaves you feeling elegant and at ease. Made mostly from linen, it breathes with you and stays fresh even on the hottest days.

Long Linen Dress Hélène

Why you'll love the Hélène dress?

  • Tummy tuck effect, effortlessly: Its long, flowing cut softens the tummy and creates a slim, balanced silhouette without feeling tight anywhere.
  • The natural freshness of linen: Woven from 70% linen and 30% cotton, it is lightweight, breathable, and pleasantly cool against the skin from morning to evening.
  • Delicate, perforated details: The delicate perforated details at the neckline, waist and sleeves give this dress a refined touch that lifts it above the ordinary.
  • Chic for any occasion: Perfect with flat sandals for a stroll by the sea or with high heels for dinner on the terrace.

Details of the Hélène dress

Who is this dress for?

Designed for women who want to feel light, elegant, and confident all summer long – without giving up on comfort or style. Available in six soft, vibrant colours: Sky Blue, Soft Green, Pastel Yellow, Black, White and Powder Pink.

How to choose your size?

The cut is flowing and falls naturally, so choose your usual size. If you're between two sizes, we'd suggest going for the larger one for extra airy comfort.

Very happy with my purchase. The jumper is high quality and properly warm. It feels like a premium brand without the premium price tag.

Hassle-free size exchange
I originally ordered a medium, but it came up a bit small round the waist. I got in touch with customer service and they swapped it for a large within two days, with no extra postage to pay. Brilliant service!

Pastel shades don't always come across properly in online photos, so I was a bit wary. But in real life the colour is spot on – exactly as it looks in the pictures.

Absolutely delighted with my order! The jacket is beautiful: the floral print is even lovelier in person, and the fleece lining makes it wonderfully cosy. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. Would happily order again. Highly recommended!

OUR STORY

SHE OPENED THE DOORS. WE NEVER THOUGHT WE’D CLOSE THEM.

This is the last photo we have with our mother in the shop.

She opened this boutique in 1988 and chose every blouse and dress herself. Her taste was in the windows, on the rails, in every little detail.

After we lost her, we kept going. We were her daughters before we became shopkeepers, and keeping her doors open was our way of holding on.

But rising costs and quieter seasons have brought us to our hardest decision: Hetty London is closing.

Before we turn the key one last time, we’re offering our remaining collection in our final sale.

We’re keeping this photograph. We hope you’ll find a piece you’ll want to keep, too.
