Material Composition
95% cotton, 5% spandex. The cotton provides the base for the velvet pile construction - cotton velvet uses cotton fibers for the characteristic looped pile surface, which gives this dress its depth and sheen while retaining the breathability and hand feel of a natural fiber. The 5% spandex allows the fitted bodice to yield with body movement rather than restricting it. At 95% cotton content, this is a high-natural-fiber garment.
Construction Details
Scoop neckline (image-inferred) with full-length sleeves (image-inferred). The bodice is fitted, transitioning into a full A-line skirt that reaches maxi length. The fabric uses a velvet pile construction (image-inferred) - the characteristic short-loop surface creates depth and light play across the garment. Clean, unadorned design with no visible closures from the front - likely pullover or rear closure. Not lined.

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold. Tumble dry low. Cold water and low heat are the right settings for cotton velvet - these preserve the pile and prevent matting or crushing of the surface, which is the primary maintenance concern with velvet construction fabrics.
