Material Composition
88% viscose, 12% polyamide. Viscose is the dominant fiber and is responsible for the soft drape and breathability of the fabric - it shares the practical qualities of natural fibers, including moisture absorption and comfortable wear in warm weather. The 12% polyamide (nylon) content adds durability and helps the fabric resist wear at stress points like the slit and waist without adding significant weight or altering the drape character. This is a well-balanced blend for a full-length dress: the viscose handles the look and feel, and the polyamide ensures it holds up through regular wear.
Construction Details
V-neckline that opens to a moderate depth at center front. Floral lace applique at the shoulders - the applique serves as the structural shoulder straps and creates an illusion panel effect, with visible floral patterning extending across the upper shoulder and into the neckline area. Below the neckline, the bodice falls cleanly and without additional structure. A self-tie belt at the natural waist is included - in product imagery the bow is tied at center front. A side slit runs from approximately mid-thigh down on one side, allowing full movement through the maxi length. The skirt falls in a clean, slightly A-line shape from the waist to the hem. Not lined.

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold; tumble dry low. Viscose-dominant blends can be sensitive to heat - the cold wash and low-heat dry settings are specifically important for maintaining the drape and preventing shrinkage in the 88% viscose content. The floral lace applique at the shoulders should be handled gently through the wash cycle to preserve the detail.
