Key Features
- Flattering A-line silhouette with a fitted bodice that flares into a relaxed, tiered midi-length skirt.
- Deep V-neckline complemented by short, layered flutter sleeves with delicate picot trim detailing.
- Smocked elasticated waist and bodice provide a comfortable, flexible fit that moves with you.
- Convenient side-seam pockets add practicality without compromising the clean lines of the dress.
- Lightweight, crisp fabric with a soft drape that holds the shape of the ruffles beautifully.
- Easy pull-on style with no zippers or buttons, making it a hassle-free wardrobe staple.
Fabric & Care
- Made from a breathable, lightweight woven material that feels soft against the skin and offers a subtle structure.
- The fabric is generally opaque; however, lighter undergarments are recommended due to the nature of the black dye.
- Smocked bodice offers generous stretch, while the skirt fabric has minimal stretch for a flowing effect.
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors; line dry or tumble dry low to maintain shape and prevent shrinking.

Styling Tips

- Add a wide-brim hat and layered gold jewelry to enhance the romantic, feminine feel of the ruffled sleeves.
- Layer with a cropped denim jacket or a lightweight cardigan for cooler days without hiding the smocked waistline.
