I was totally oblivious to just how useful it is for a dress to have pockets until my lovely mum very kindly treated me to the Black Gingham Starlight Midi Dress from Nobody’s Child last summer.
It was as flattering and feminine in the flesh as I’d expected — and best of all, by the end of its debut outing to the pub, I’d had an epiphany; dresses with pockets were well and truly the way forward.
And a recent study by Nobody’s Child has revealed that I’m certainly not alone in thinking this way — with three-quarters of the 1000 UK women surveyed saying that they wish that more dresses and skirts had pockets. So, in response, they’ve launched a brand new Dresses with Pockets collection page.
A functional yet stylish feature, pockets take away the need for a bag if you’re travelling light, and keeping valuables like your phone on your person makes them far less likely to end up lost or stolen. Plus, there’s also just something really instinctive about being able to put your hands in your pockets — especially if you’re like me, and never know what to do with your hands when posing for photos.
Ready to find the perfect dress with pockets for you? From effortlessly stylish day dresses, to more formal options that feel perfect for a summer wedding, here are some of our top Nobody’s Child picks.
Green Pinstriped Starlight Midi Dress
The ultimate playful and feminine silhouette, it wouldn’t feel right not to include the iconic Starlight dress. With its low v-neck, short balloon sleeves, and flattering a-line skirt, it’s the perfect summer dress to pair with pumps or trainers. Best of all, it comes in 22 different colours, prints, and patterns — but this pinstripe green option feels spot-on for SS25.
Pink One Shoulder Shirred Midi Dress
Easy to dress up or down, this gorgeous one shoulder dress makes a real statement with its hot pink hue, trendy shirred bodice, and oversized bow detail. The swishy tiered skirt drapes seamlessly, and comes fitted with pockets for maximum practicality.
Green Colorado Midi Dress
Mint green is having a moment — so it’s no surprise that this dress is trending. With its thick bra-friendly straps, square neckline, and relaxed skirt, it’s the ultimate easy-to-wear midi — go casual with pumps or sandals, or dial things up a bit with a few statement accessories.
White Flossie Midi Dress
Everybody needs a staple white midi dress like this one to help see them through summer. It’s made from lightweight textured organic cotton, boasts flattering features like a panelled waist and frilly detailing, and has surprisingly deep pockets for storing daytime essentials like your phone and favourite lip balm. Easy to accessorise, just throw on your trusty denim jacket, and some trainers, sandals, or even suede boots.
Blue Bubble Hem Bandeau Midi Dress
There’s so much to love about this genuinely stunning bandeau dress. With its sky blue abstract print, gorgeous ruched bodice, and on-trend bubble skirt, it feels like the perfect option for a spring or summer wedding. Meanwhile, practical features like hidden pockets and optional spaghetti straps make it the kind of dress that’s as practical as it is pretty.
