The smocked mid-section stretches, the spaghetti straps are removable in practice — leave them up, tie them behind your neck halter-style, or drop them and wear it strapless. Customers who buy it for a resort week end up wearing it to breakfast, then again to dinner with different shoes and earrings. It's tea length, so it clears sand and doesn't drag on a boat deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — Medium, Large\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e — Pink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — long, tea length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStraps\u003c\/strong\u003e — spaghetti shoulder straps, tie halter, or strapless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaist\u003c\/strong\u003e — wrap-around stretch smocked mid-section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, made in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — Puanani\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe smocked band does the work here, so this dress forgives more than a fitted sundress would — it stretches across the bust and ribcage and holds without a zip. Take your usual size. If you're between M and L, the smocking will accommodate the smaller of the two, but choose Large if you want the skirt fuller through the hip rather than closer. Rayon falls straight and close from the smocked band down, so it skims rather than flares. Strapless works best if the band sits snug; if you want it looser, keep the straps up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSunset dinners on the beach, catamaran trips, hotel lu'au nights, and the flight home over a swimsuit. It's also the dress mothers pick when their daughter is in the matching girls' version for family photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCoordinating Pieces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree other pieces come in this same print: the Beauteous Flower Poetry Girl's Smocked dress for a matching mother-daughter set, plus a Beach Dress with Pocket if you want a second silhouette in the same print, and one further Beauteous Flower Poetry piece. Order them together and the pinks match in photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold wash or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron if needed. Keep rayon out of a hot dryer — that's what shortens a dress like this.\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 how a garment actually fits before you buy it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching prints across women's and girls' when you need them to match\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.

If you're between M and L, take the Medium for strapless wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is tea length on a shorter frame?\u003c\/strong\u003e It generally sits mid-calf to just above the ankle. Under about 5'2\", expect it to run closer to ankle length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I get the girls' dress in the same print?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — the Beauteous Flower Poetry Girl's Smocked dress uses the same print. Order both at once so the shades line up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the smocking lose its stretch?\u003c\/strong\u003e Not if you wash it cold and hang it. Heat is what tires elastic smocking out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MauiShirts","offers":[{"title":"Pink \/ Medium","offer_id":59770958053662,"sku":"351O-TG-PINK-M","price":56.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Pink \/ Large","offer_id":59770958086430,"sku":"351O-TG-PINK-L","price":56.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1086\/8608\/2334\/files\/beautius-flower-poetry-women-s-spaghetti-strap-puanani-label-hawaiian-aloha-style-sundress-60_9f3acf42-01f0-407f-9d47-c01982185f7c.jpg?v=1786841963","url":"https:\/\/mauishirts.com\/products\/beautius-flower-poetry-long-smocked-sun-dress","provider":"MauiShirts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
