Pure Virgin Wool Hooded Dress: Choose this if you want a floor-sweeping, hooded maxi knit with an avant-garde feel: it is cut from fine 100% virgin wool with a relaxed fit, drop shoulders, extra-long sleeves, a wide ribbed waistband, and a deep back slit, made in Italy in a Chocolate/Espresso color in sizes SMALL through LARGE. Choose this for the dramatic drape and sheer styling — the wool is described as gorgeously sheer, with semi-sheer panels at the bodice and front skirt, so plan your layering accordingly.[1,3,4]Athena Rib-Knit Draped Dress: Choose this if you want a form-fitting, one-shoulder maxi in 100% virgin wool rib knit, with asymmetric draped shoulders, an open back area, high side slits, and a raw-edged hem; the retailer describes its drape as evoking antique statues in deep black. It measures 55 inches (140 cm) from the top of the shoulder, comes in sizes X-Small through Large, and is made in Italy. Note that fit is close-fitting and the slit exposes the leg from above the knee, so it suits those comfortable with a body-skimming silhouette.[5,6,7,8]Temple Long Sleeves Dress: Choose this for a form-fitting, extra-long maxi in a high-stretch viscose blend (96% viscose, 4% spandex), with graphic panel stitching at the bust, a raw hem, fitted long sleeves that extend past the wrists, and a curved back slit plus a high side slit. The extra-long style measures about 64.25 inches (163 cm) from the top of the shoulder, and it is offered in black in sizes 42 and 44. Note that the fabric is described as thin and slightly sheer in places, including over the bust and hip, which may matter if you prefer more coverage.[9,10,11,12,13]
