The empire drawstring does the work: cinch it for a defined waist, loosen it when you've eaten, and nobody can tell either way. No zip to fight with, no buttons down the back, no asking someone to help you out of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit\u003c\/strong\u003e — empire waist with adjustable drawstring tie at the front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEntry\u003c\/strong\u003e — pull-over style, no zip or buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeckline\u003c\/strong\u003e — scoop square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e — fully lined on top, vertical bust darts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — knee length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, made in Hawaii, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — RJC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drawstring at the empire seam is what makes this dress forgiving — the waist is set high, just under the bust, and you decide how snug it sits. Vertical bust darts give the front actual shape rather than letting it hang flat, and the top is fully lined, so it isn't sheer across the chest. Below the empire seam the rayon falls away from the body instead of clinging, which is why it works on most shapes. Knee length reads as a real dress rather than a beach coverup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSunday brunch, a resort dinner, a graduation, an office lunch in a warm climate, or the whole afternoon of a family gathering where you'll be sitting, standing and carrying plates. It also travels well — pull-on dresses are what you want when you're changing between two events with no time in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold wash or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron.
