Material Composition
70% cotton, 30% linen. Cotton contributes softness, easy washability, and a comfortable hand against the skin. Linen adds breathability, a natural texture, and structural integrity that prevents the fabric from draping too loosely or losing its shape. At this 70/30 ratio, the fabric reads primarily as cotton in softness and ease of care, while the linen provides the slight texture and crispness visible in the image. Both fibers are natural and breathe well in warm weather. Linen-cotton blends soften slightly with each wash without losing structure.
Construction Details
Notched lapel collar with a deep V-opening at the neckline - the collar construction is the defining detail that gives this dress its range across occasions. Cap sleeves provide minimal shoulder coverage. Self-tie belt at the natural waist, long enough to tie in front and trail loosely or knot close to the body. Straight silhouette falls from the shoulders to maxi length (approximately 52-53 inches). Side split visible in image - provides ease of movement. Pullover/wrap entry via the collar opening. Not lined.

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold. Tumble dry low. Cold washing is especially important for linen-cotton blends, as it prevents the linen fibers from shrinking; low-heat drying maintains the fabric's natural texture and prevents excessive wrinkling.
