Material Composition
85% lyocell, 15% polyamide. Lyocell (commonly known by the brand name Tencel) is a semi-synthetic fiber made from wood cellulose - it has the soft hand and natural drape of plant-based fibers with better moisture management than cotton. The polyamide fraction adds tensile strength and helps the fabric hold its structure through the bishop sleeves and tiered hem. Together they produce a lightweight dress that maintains its shape while moving freely, and that washes well at low temperatures.
Construction Details
V-neck with frill edge trim running along the neckline opening. Decorative button placket at center front with buttons that appear functional. Long bishop sleeves are voluminous from shoulder to wrist, where the fabric gathers into a ruffle-finished cuff. The waist is gathered with an elastic band and a self-tie drawstring that allows fit adjustment at the natural waist. The skirt is tiered with ruffle trim at the tier transition point, consistent with the ruffle treatment at the neckline and cuffs. Mini length, unlined, opaque throughout.

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Lyocell performs well through repeated washing at low temperatures - cold wash and low-heat drying maintain the drape, color, and ruffle construction integrity over time. Avoid high heat, which can distort the gathered cuffs and tiered skirt details.
