Blue / XS

A floor-length maxi dress in 95% cotton and 5% spandex with a sweetheart neckline and adjustable self-tie shoulder straps that bow at the top of each shoulder. The bodice is smocked through the chest - gathering to the body without relying on fixed measurements - and transitions into a full A-line skirt that hits the floor with a tiered ruffle at the hem. Not lined, which keeps the cotton light and breathable through warm weather; the full skirt and ruffle detail give it enough presence for evenings out without feeling heavy. Available in Blue, Black, White, and Yellow, in sizes XS through XL.

Material: 95% Cotton, 5% Spandex - natural fiber construction that breathes in warm weather; the minimal spandex content helps the smocked bodice retain its gathered shape
Neckline: Sweetheart - curved neckline frames the decolletage and complements the tie-strap detail at the shoulder
Straps: Self-tie adjustable shoulder straps - bow-tie construction at each shoulder allows the fit to be adjusted without altering the dress
Bodice Construction: Smocked - elastic gathering through the chest area fits the bodice to the body across a range of bust measurements without a fixed cut
Silhouette: A-line, floor length - full skirt from the waist to the floor with natural movement
Hem Detail: Tiered ruffle - adds visual interest and volume at the hem without adding bulk through the body
Stretch: No stretch listed in product data - construction relies on smocking rather than stretch for bodice fit
Lining: Not lined - the cotton weight carries without additional structure
Care: Machine wash cold, tumble dry low

Material Composition

95% cotton, 5% spandex. The high cotton content provides breathability and natural drape appropriate for a floor-length summer dress. Cotton at this weight has enough body to hold the A-line skirt's silhouette and supports the tiered ruffle at the hem without collapsing. The 5% spandex helps the smocked bodice maintain its gathered structure through the day - without it, smocking can relax and lose its shape over extended wear.

Construction Details

Sweetheart neckline with adjustable self-tie shoulder straps - the straps tie into bows at the top of each shoulder and can be adjusted for length and fit. The bodice is smocked through the chest, using rows of elastic gathering to create a fit that accommodates a range of body measurements. Below the smocked bodice the skirt is A-line and falls to floor length. A tiered ruffle is constructed at the hem - visible from image analysis as a separate fabric tier with a gathered seam above it. Not lined. No visible closures other than the tie straps.

Fabric Behavior

Care Instructions

Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Cold washing maintains the cotton fiber and the smocked elastic through repeated cycles - hot water can degrade the elasticity in smocked sections over time. Low heat drying is appropriate for cotton at this weight and prevents shrinkage that would affect the floor-length proportion.
