Material Composition
100% Tencel (lyocell) - a semi-synthetic fiber derived from wood pulp. Tencel shares properties with natural fibers: it breathes, drapes, and regulates moisture without stiffness. The smooth fiber surface reflects light evenly, which is why watercolor prints read with depth and clarity on Tencel. In a tiered construction, the fabric's light weight allows each tier to move independently rather than collapsing together.
Construction Details
V-notch neckline with a string tie at the opening. Smocked yoke panel that provides fit through the chest and transitions into an empire-line silhouette. Short puff sleeves with gathered cuffs. Two-tier skirt construction beginning at the empire line. Fully lined through the skirt. The watercolor floral print runs across both tiers without visual interruption at the tier seam.
Fabric Behavior
Care Instructions
Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Tencel is sensitive to heat - cold wash and low heat drying preserves the fiber's drape and prevents shrinkage. The lining and main fabric share the same care requirements and wash together without issue.
