The straps have two buttonholes each, so you shorten or lengthen them to your own frame, and they're cut wide enough to cover bra straps underneath. The back is smocked from the waist to the shoulder blades, which means it stretches with you through a long dinner instead of pinching. Customers buy it for Christmas parties in Hawaii and then wear it right through the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — X-Small, 2X-Large\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours\u003c\/strong\u003e — Black (Original Print), Red (Original Print)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — above the knee, with a 3¼\" centre slit at the back hem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack\u003c\/strong\u003e — stretchable smocked panel from waist to shoulder blades, matching-colour zip from mid-back down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStraps\u003c\/strong\u003e — adjustable, two buttons on each strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront\u003c\/strong\u003e — bralette-style top with a faux wrap tie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, handmade in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly two sizes are stocked in this style — X-Small and 2X-Large — so check your usual dress size before you order rather than after. The smocked back does a lot of the work: it gives through the ribs and upper back, so a size that would normally feel snug across the shoulders usually still works here. The zip runs from mid-back to lower back, so you step into it rather than pulling it over your head. Rayon drapes close to the body, and the front wrap tie lets you set the waist where you want it. Above-knee hem, so on a taller frame it sits shorter than you might expect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChristmas parties in a warm climate, holiday dinners, cruise nights, a resort evening out, or a photo session where you want bare shoulders without fighting your bra straps. The red reads as festive without being a novelty print; the black works when the invitation says dressy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold hand wash or dry clean. Hang to dry — never a hot dryer, which is what ruins rayon. Warm iron on the reverse if needed, and keep the iron off the smocked panel so the elastic keeps its stretch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Shop MauiShirts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28 years of shipping Hawaiian clothing from our Maui showroom — since 1998\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe tell you which sizes actually exist in a style instead of showing a full run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizing questions answered before you order, by a person who has handled the garment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.

The shoulder straps are designed to sit over your bra straps and hide them, and each one buttons to two positions so you can line them up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it go on?\u003c\/strong\u003e Step in and zip the back — the zip runs from mid-back to the lower back.
