color

Fabric feels soft, smooth, lightweight and breathable with a gentle silk-like sheen and fluid drape.

Side Knots Cotton-Silk Blend Shirtdress: Choose this if you want a relaxed, oversized shirtdress in a lightweight cotton-silk twill (88% cotton, 12% silk) with a soft sheen and fluid drape. It suits shoppers drawn to statement details like tie-up side openings with long draped panels that create an asymmetrical hem, a rounded bib front with a button placket, a point collar, and moccasin topstitching at the cuffs — all in a Baby Blue colorway, sizes 4 to 12, made in Italy. Keep in mind the length varies by detail: the body hits above the knee (about 35.75 inches from the shoulder in a size 4), while the side panels hang longer and lower.[1,2,3,4,5]Tie-Up Waist Pure Silk Dress: Choose this if you want a sleeveless maxi in 100 percent silk crepe with a flowy, wrinkled texture, a draped silhouette, and inserts that tie into a knot at the front waist. It features a scooped neckline, narrow twisted straps, a deep V back, and an asymmetric high-low hem, with a length of 54.25 inches from the top of the shoulder and a fitted style that showed a relaxed, bloused bodice on the model. Note that the evidence covers only the Pink colorway in sizes 8 and 10, and the ankle-grazing appearance may vary by wearer.[6,7,8,9,10]Ruffled Floral Maxi Dress: Choose this if you want a flowy, romantic maxi dress in soft, lightweight 100% viscose with a fluid drape, featuring cold-shoulder cutouts, short flared sleeves, a fitted bodice, and cascading ruffled tiers from waist to skirt. Choose it for a bold, all-over large-scale floral print in dark and pale blue with cream accents, a high round neckline, a hidden back zip, and a flared floor-length hem that measures about 54.25 inches (138 cm) from the top of the shoulder; it comes in sizes 4 through 12 and is made in Portugal. Note that the merchant's claim that it is sure to turn heads is promotional positioning, not a reported customer experience.[11,12,13,14]
