{"product_id":"bougainvillea-sarong-dress","title":"Bougainvillea Smocked Back Sarong","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBougainvillea Smocked Back Sarong — the dress that fits a range of bodies without alteration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have ever bought a sarong dress that gaped at the bust or pinched across the back, this is the construction that solves it. The back is smocked from the waist up to the shoulder blades, so it stretches with you, and the shoulder straps have two buttonholes each — shorten them if you are petite, let them out if you are long through the torso. Customers heading to a resort dinner or a friend's beach wedding buy this one because it needs no tailoring and no strapless bra: the straps sit wide enough to hide your own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, 2X-Large\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours\u003c\/strong\u003e — Black, Red, Sage, White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — above the knee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack\u003c\/strong\u003e — stretch smocked tube from waist to shoulder blades, matching-colour zipper mid-back to lower back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStraps\u003c\/strong\u003e — adjustable, two buttons per strap, cover bra straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront\u003c\/strong\u003e — bralette top with faux wrap tie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHem\u003c\/strong\u003e — 3¼\" centre back slit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, handmade in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — Paradise Found\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake your usual size. The smocked back does the accommodating, so you are really sizing for your waist and hip rather than your bust — if those two disagree, size to the hip and let the smocking handle the top. Rayon drapes close, not skimming, so anyone who prefers a little air between fabric and body should go one up. Above the knee means above the knee: if you are 5'8\" or taller it will sit higher than the photographs suggest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResort dinners, sunset cruises, wedding guest duty on sand where a long gown is impossible, and any evening warm enough that a zip-back cotton dress would stick. The faux wrap tie at the front dresses it up enough for a restaurant; flat sandals take it back down to a beach bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRayon: cold hand wash or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron on the reverse. Keep it out of a hot dryer — that is what shrinks rayon, and the smocking will not forgive it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Shop MauiShirts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28 years selling Hawaiian clothing from our Maui showroom, since 1998\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe describe how a garment actually fits, including where it runs short or close\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizing questions answered before you order — a person picks up the phone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.
