Description
The Korbela Dress in Sage is a wardrobe classic that never goes out of style. Crafted from a breathable linen and viscose blend, this women's midi dress comes in a beautiful calming sage tone that works across every season. The plunge neckline, button-up front and relaxed A-line silhouette make it one of those pieces you'll reach for again and again, and yes, it has pockets.
Perfect for brunch, casual days out, holidays, Christmas gatherings and everything in between, the flowing skirt can work well over a bump when the bust and buttoned front fit comfortably. An Esther & Co bestseller that keeps coming back for a reason.
Good to know before you order
The skirt and waist are relaxed and easy, but the bust is cut closer than the rest of the dress. If your bust or rib cage is changing during pregnancy, allow extra room at the buttoned front; the flowing skirt has more ease than the bodice. The plunge V neckline sits low, so consider that if you prefer more coverage. If you are a fuller cup, or sitting between sizes, take the size up and it will sit exactly as it should. The 80 per cent viscose and 20 per cent linen blend is light and breathable, and it softens beautifully with every wash. Our XXL, 3XL and 4XL come up a little closer through the body than the rest of the range, so if you are between two sizes take the larger one.
Why you'll love it:
- Sage linen blend midi dress that suits every occasion
- Plunge neckline with a button-up front
- Side pockets
- Fabric: 80% Viscose & 20% Linen, breathable and lightweight for warm weather and travel
- Relaxed A-line skirt with room for a bump when the bust fits comfortably
- Available in sizes XS to 4XL for an inclusive fit
Style with sandals and a straw bag for easy warm-weather dressing, or layer with a denim jacket for cooler days. Shop the Korbela Dress in Sage and the full Esther & Co women's dress edit online.
Styling notes
If you prefer more coverage at the plunge neckline, layer a simple camisole underneath. Choose one close to your skin tone for a discreet effect, or cream for a visible contrast; a short cardigan lets the waist and flowing skirt remain the focus.

Shipping and delivery
Everything ships from our Sydney warehouse, except our Esther Home pieces, which ship straight from Ivory & Deene in Tasmania (more on that below). Order before 12pm AEST on a weekday and yours goes out the same day. Order after 12pm, or on a weekend or public holiday, and it goes out the next business day.
Pre-orders work a little differently. A pre-order is a piece that hasn't reached our warehouse yet, so it ships once our incoming stock lands rather than same day. You'll see the estimated dispatch timeframe on the product page before you order. There's more detail in our pre-order FAQ.
During busy periods like sale events, Christmas and public holidays, dispatch can run up to 24 hours behind. We'll always get your order moving as fast as we can.
Australia
Standard, 2 to 7 business days
- Eligible in-stock orders of $150 AUD or more: free
- Eligible in-stock orders under $150 AUD: $11.95
Express, 1 to 3 business days
- In-stock orders: $15.95
Roughly how long it takes to reach you
- NSW and VIC, 2 business days
- QLD, SA, ACT and TAS, 3 business days
- WA and NT, 4 to 5 business days
These are estimates and can stretch during peak periods. Marketplace pieces ship directly from our partner warehouses, so their timing can differ slightly.
Esther Home (homewares)
Our Esther Home range is curated with Ivory & Deene, our family's homewares label, and ships straight from their warehouse in Tasmania. Because these pieces are packed and sent separately, their shipping works a little differently:
- Shipping is worked out at checkout from your address and the size of the piece, so you see the exact cost before you pay
- Free shipping over $150 applies to our clothing and accessories, not to Esther Home pieces
- If your order includes Esther Home pieces and your Esther pieces come to under $150 ($150 NZD for New Zealand), standard shipping for your Esther pieces is added in your cart, so your Esther parcel ships at its usual rate
- Most pieces leave Tasmania within 1 business day. Road delivery usually takes 4 to 8 business days, express (where offered) 1 to 2
- Parcels need a signature on delivery
- If your order has both clothing and homewares, checkout shows a shipping line for each parcel, and you'll receive two parcels, each with its own tracking
- Returns go back to Ivory & Deene rather than through our returns portal, just email us and we'll send you the details
Everything about Esther Home delivery and returns is on our Esther Home Shipping & Returns page.

UK and Europe
We don't ship to the UK or Europe just yet. We're working on it, so watch this space.
Pre-orders
Pre-order pieces ship once our incoming stock lands, and the estimated dispatch timeframe sits on each product page.
Pre-order shipping is a flat $11.95 AUD for Australia and $14.95 AUD for New Zealand. New Zealand shipping is converted to NZD at checkout. Pre-order shipping is excluded from free-shipping offers. Pre-order items sent together share one pre-order shipping charge. In-stock items are dispatched first, separately, and their usual shipping rates apply. The total shipping charge is shown at checkout before payment.
Pre-orders are available for delivery within Australia and New Zealand only.
You're very welcome to pop a pre-order in your cart alongside something that's already in stock. We'll send your in stock pieces straight away and your pre-order will follow once it lands, so you're never waiting on one piece to get the rest. If you order two pre-orders with different arrival dates, we may send those separately too. Either way, you'll get tracking as each parcel leaves us.
Full detail is in our pre-order FAQ.
Tracking your order
The moment your order is dispatched we'll email you a tracking number, and you can follow your parcel straight through the carrier's site.

I love this dress. I bought it for my baby shower and maternity photos at 34 weeks pregnant and it’s so flattering. I will be able to wear it the rest of my pregnancy. It’s also going to be able to be used once baby is here in terms of fit and style. Fast delivery too!
Purchased this for a maternity shoot! Hit the vibe perfectly. Great quality! I would say the sizing is accurate however for larger bust girls definitely size up 1-2 sizes. I’m 14/16 with size H cups, XL didn’t fit my bust, XXL was still slightly snug but fit.
Absolute favorite dress!! The material is amazing. I got the size xs and it fit perfectly! Definitely recommend!!
I couldn't love this dress more! I got it for our maternity shoot & am so happy with it I will continue to wear it long after the baby is born!
Poor quality
Hi, we are really sorry the Korbela did not live up to what you were hoping for. We would love to know a bit more about what let it down, because it helps us fix things properly. If you email customercare@esther.com.au with your order number, we will make it right. The Esther team x
Size 6 was way too big on me
Great fit. Nice colour.
Beautiful dress and true to size, would recommend.
Good material, but too tight on the bust and I am not big on the top. I always buy 12
Really lovely dress, lightweight. Dress up or down. Normal Australian sizing.
I had previously ordered the plunge posture support bras and ordered these thinkibg they would be as good. Unfortunately, they are not well made and the elastic really cuts into the shoulders.
Sizing was very small and upon return I was only offered a credit and there is nothing else on your range suitablee to replace with
Lovely fit, bit too low cut for my preference but an easy fix. I found the buttons weren’t well sewn on and were coming undone after 1 wear. The button holes are also too big for the buttons.
Love the dress! I bought it for a special occasion, unfortunately there was a broken button which was at the top section of dress and noticeable , but otherwise everything about the dress I loved, the service and delivery was amazing.
Beautiful dress, fabric feels amazing, coour is gorgeous, but I am returning as bust wasn't flattering on me. It made my breaststroke look really small and very low.
Love the dress, but found the sizing was generous despite using my normal measurements.
Lovely dress but returned just because the neckline was way too low and was unable to clip it up a little higher. Fabric and colour nice. Good quality.
I absolutely adore this dress, unfortunately the first button came off on my second wear of the dress so I now need to repair it before being able to wear it again which is disappointing for the price if the dress. Buttons could definitely use some extra stitching!
I sized up due to being pregnant and this dress has plenty of room. It’s the comfiest thing I’ve worn for my pregnancy and keeps me cool!
Gorgeous, want more colours 😍
Best dress I own, So comfortable!
Hi the material is a bit thinner than it looks and slightly bigger in size but I will definitely get wear out of it on hot days
Absolutely love this dress I now have one in each colour. It is so comfortable. Sizing is perfect
Neckline too low for D cups! Srunk in the wash which was disappointing. Was true to size before it was washed.
Beautiful dress, love the fit and flow around the waist and below. The arms and upper back are a little tighter than I expected
Absolutely gorgeous! Size Fits perfectly, superior quality material! Can’t recommend enough
These are my favorite and I have EVERY colour! It’s so flattering, comfortable and beautiful in every way! Can’t recommend enough!
It’s a little bit low cut, but still really nice and flattering.
Beautiful dress, great cut for all shapes
Beautiful dress
Beautiful quality and comfortable dress
The colour and style of the dress is pretty however it has a very low-cut neckline.
