Material Composition
95% cotton, 5% spandex. The cotton gives the fabric enough structure to hold the fitted bodice at floor length without the heaviness of a denser weave. The 5% spandex provides minimal stretch recovery, helping the fit maintain its shape through a full evening of wear - relevant at this length where the bodice carries the fit of the entire garment.
Construction Details
Floor-length maxi dress with a halter neck that ties behind the neck, leaving the upper back open. The body is predominantly black with a contrast white panel running along the left side from approximately the hip to the hem, with ruching along the seam where the two fabrics meet. The bodice is fitted from the bust through the waist. Pullover entry via the halter tie. Not lined. No overall stretch despite the spandex content per JSON specification.

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Cold washing is particularly important with a black-and-white contrast construction - hot water risks the black bleeding into the white panel. Low heat drying maintains the cotton's structure and the integrity of the ruched seam detail over time.
