| Polka-Dotted Sleeveless Micromesh Dress: Choose this if you want a fitted, sleeveless little black dress with a playful twist: sheer polka-dotted micromesh side panels run from shoulder to hip against opaque black central panels, per the retailer and product imagery. It is made in Italy from a soft, forest-friendly viscose blend (97% viscose, 3% elastane) with a polyester lining, a hidden back zip, and a hem that hits above the knee. Note that the side mesh is transparent enough to reveal skin beneath, so consider whether that level of sheerness suits the occasions you have in mind.[1,2,3] | Poplin Cropped Shirtdress: Choose this if you want a crisp, minimalist shirtdress in lightweight 100% cotton poplin, with a point collar, half-length buttoned placket, long sleeves with button cuffs, a chest patch pocket plus hidden side-seam pockets, and a wide hem band. The cropped trapeze, A-line silhouette falls above the knee (about 86.5 centimeters from the top of the shoulder) with fabric that hangs away from the body, and the retailer describes the design as a sharp, modern statement stripped of embellishment. Note that the hem is described as raw-edged, so this works best if that unfinished detail suits your style.[4,5,6] | Tie-Neck Silk Midi Dress: Choose this if you want a fluid, feminine midi in 100 percent organic silk crepe, made in Italy, with a pussy-bow tie neck that can be worn in a loose bow or left open, draped cape-like sleeves, and an asymmetrical high-low hem that falls below the knee (122 cm, or 48 inches, from the shoulder in size small). The light, flowy Martini Pink silk has a luminous finish and, per one reviewer, enough structure to layer under a blazer or oversized knit, though its sleeve hems and scarf edges show a slightly raw-fluttered look in photos. The hidden side zip and acetate-silk blend lining at the skirt keep the silhouette skimming rather than clingy.[7,8,9,10,11] |
