This isn't that one. It's darted at the bust and the waist, front and back, zips up the back, and sits 3 to 5 inches above the knee — so it holds a shape instead of hanging straight off the shoulders. Cotton, so it washes hard and dries fast between beach days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit\u003c\/strong\u003e — fitted through bust and waist, A-line skirt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — mini, 3-5 inches above the knee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeckline\u003c\/strong\u003e — square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure\u003c\/strong\u003e — back zipper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaping\u003c\/strong\u003e — bust darts, slim fitted waistline, waist darts front and back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% cotton, made in USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis one runs small and short.\u003c\/strong\u003e That's the single most important thing to know before you order. If you're between sizes, go up — the darted waist and back zip mean there's no give to borrow from. And check the length against your own frame: 3 to 5 inches above the knee on a 5'4\" customer is not the same dress on someone 5'9\". Taller women should expect a genuinely short mini. If you prefer coverage at mid-thigh or below, this is not the cut for you and we'd rather say so now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDinner out after a day on the sand, resort evenings, birthday drinks, and the kind of hot afternoon where a fitted cotton dress beats shorts. The square neck reads dressier than a scoop, so it carries a sandal and an earring fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold wash, tumble low or hang to dry. Cotton will tighten a little on a hot wash — on a dress cut this close, that's worth avoiding. Warm iron if the skirt needs it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Shop MauiShirts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelling Hawaiian clothing from our Maui showroom since 1998 — 28 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe tell you when a cut runs small or short, before you buy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight answers on fit from people who handle the garments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.
