Frank & Eileen Hunter Split Hem Shirtdress – Blue Check

Think of the Hunter as the quintessential shirtdress—easy, effortless, and endlessly wearable. In a fresh blue check, this version delivers a shorter, sassy, modern vibe while keeping that polished, pulled-together feel. Designed to hover just above the knee, Hunter moves seamlessly from casual afternoons to dressed-up dinners thanks to its subtle step-hem and thoughtful tailoring.

Fit Notes

Hunter is cut to flatter with a signature bust-enhancing button placement that eliminates pulling and keeps the silhouette clean. The hemline hits just above the knee, with a slightly longer back for added coverage and an elevated finish. Long sleeves with button cuffs offer versatility—wear them down for a classic look or rolled for a relaxed feel.

Simone is 5'8" with a 34" bust and is wearing a size Small. The length is 33" from shoulder to hem (size S). If you’re between sizes, choose your regular size for a tailored look or size up for a more relaxed, borrowed-from-the-boys fit.

Styling Notes

Lean into the modern edge by pairing it with crisp white sneakers for everyday cool, or add espadrilles for an effortless warm-weather vibe. For a slightly dressier take, style it with sleek sandals and a structured crossbody. Roll the sleeves, pop the collar, and add layered gold jewelry for that undone yet intentional finish. On cooler days, layer it under a lightweight sweater or cropped jacket and let the step-hem peek through.

Why We Love It

Hunter balances relaxed charm with refined detail. The step-hem adds movement and dimension, while the blue check keeps it playful yet timeless. It’s the kind of throw-on-and-go piece that still feels styled. From travel days to brunch plans, it adapts to whatever’s on your calendar.

Fabric & Care

Crafted from Italian Classic Linen, this 100% linen fabric has a strong personality and a subtly wrinkled texture we adore. It’s soft, breathable, and has that can’t-stop-touching-it feel that only authentic linen delivers. The linen is grown in Western Europe, spun primarily in Eastern Europe, and woven primarily in Italy.

Turn the garment inside out before washing. Machine wash cold and tumble dry low for best results.
