Kathleen | Ruched Waist Maxi Dress
Ready For The Occasion
The fabric of the Kathleen is soft, breathable and light enough to move with the air around you on a warm evening. Cut as a sleeveless maxi, it gathers softly across the bodice, nips in at a wide ruched waistband, then falls away from the hip in a flowing skirt that reaches the ankle. The rounded neckline sits high across the chest so nothing pulls or gapes as you lift a glass or sweep hair off your shoulder. Whether the invite says garden wedding, birthday dinner or a long table with friends, it settles into the moment without fuss.
Why our customers love Kathleen
✔ A Defined Waist Without Squeezing: The ruched band gently shapes the middle and stretches along with you, with no zip pressing into your side
✔ Nothing Clings To The Hip: The skirt falls full and loose from the waistband and skims past the hip instead of holding onto it
✔ Covered Across The Chest: The bodice gathers high against a rounded neckline so you can raise your arms without quietly checking yourself
✔ Light Enough For A Warm Room: The fabric stays airy and moves with the air around you, keeping you comfortable through a long celebration
✔ Soft Breathable Fabric: Gentle against the skin and made to move with the body rather than cling to it

Does the bodice stay modest across the chest?
Yes, the gathers sit high against a rounded neckline, so raising your arms or leaning forward stays covered.
Will the skirt cling to the hips?
No, it falls full and loose from the ruched waistband and skims past the hip rather than following it.
Is the fabric heavy or light on a warm evening?
It is soft and breathable, light enough to move with the air around you across a long celebration.
How does the ruched waistband feel against the skin?
It shapes the middle gently and stretches with you, with no zip pressing into your side.
How should I wash the Kathleen?
Treat it as a gentle occasion piece: a cool hand wash and a flat dry keeps the bodice gathers and ruched waistband sitting just right.

Born from the warmth of Bruny Island
Some places just stay with you.
For me, it was Bruny Island. The way the morning light hits the water at Adventure Bay, shoes off, salt air, nowhere to be. A place where you remember what really matters.
I started Bruny Boutique because I wanted to bring that feeling home. Pieces that move with you. That feel as good as they look. Chosen with care for women who've earned the right to dress exactly how they please.
No chasing trends. No uncomfortable fits. Just timeless, beautiful clothing that makes you feel like yourself, on your best days.
Here's to dressing for the life you love. 💙
With love, Robyn

Noeline Barrett
New favourite
I'll be honest, I almost didn't order because I wasn't sure these styles were for women my age. I was so wrong. Everything fits beautifully, the quality is excellent, and I've already had compliments. This is my new favourite boutique
Kerrie Fairbairn
Sceptical at first
Sceptical at first with online purchases. But absolutely stunning dresses and clothes. Not the cheapest but they are worth it.
Bonnie Sheridan
Love, love, love
Love, love, love that vibrant blue! Perfect for a mother-daughter day out in Battery Point. So easy to throw on but you still look totally put together. Highly recommend for any woman looking to add a little colour to her wardrobe!
Denise Thornbury
My go-to boutique
This store has the best dresses, a lovely website, great customer service and payment options and they always have the best prices around. I'm down in Hobart, but I'll order from here over the boutiques close by every time.
