Loose cotton dress for tropics

Hi
I am about to spend a few weeks in the tropics- it will be very hot with high humidity.
I am trying to find cool, loose, floaty and lightweight dresses. Ideally will pack easily, dry easily and not plain (as they show every mark). Definitely not thick cotton/jersey and must cover my arms.
This is the best I have found

But £90 seems quite excessive and I will need to buy 4-5 of this sort of thing.

Has anyone seen anything similar please? (And there won't be any opportunity to buy something out there before someone suggests that!)
Thank you

I now have five dresses in my Amazon basket to think about tomorrow when the excitement has worn off.
What about other geographical terms then can we still use those: equatorial (rainforest), arctic circle (northern lights etc)?

Depends on what crawls out of the wood work 😂

It was discontinued last year. My husband wasn’t happy as it was his favourite soft drink. Now he has to make do with the Aldi knock off.

No doubt beybey20 will have an aneurysm…

Fear not @missshilling. It still exists but was rebranded as Fanta pineapple and grapefruit

Thanks, but I wouldn’t dream of buying a Fanta product because of the association with Nazi Germany.
