Material Composition
The 90% cotton content provides breathability and the crisp, textured quality typical of cotton eyelet - a fabric with embroidered cut-out detailing that creates pattern through the weave itself. The 10% polyester addition reinforces the fabric weave and helps prevent the eyelet embroidery from distorting with wear or repeated washing. The slight stretch comes from the fabric construction rather than added elastane, allowing the fitted sections to move without pulling.
Construction Details
The dress features a square neckline with a lace-up tie detail at center front that cinches the bodice and adjusts to preference. Short puff sleeves are constructed with ruffle edges in the same eyelet fabric, adding volume at the shoulder without length. The skirt body has vertical ruching gathered at the sides, creating draped panels that allow movement. The hem finishes with a ruffle in matching eyelet fabric. The dress is partially lined through the body. Eyelet cut-out embroidery runs throughout the exterior fabric.

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. The cotton eyelet fabric maintains its crispness and embroidery definition best when dried at low heat - high heat can cause the embroidered edges to curl slightly at the cut-outs.
