The bodice is genuinely fitted — princess seams front and back, sweetheart neckline, zipper closure — and then the skirt releases from the high waist and flares out, so you get definition through the ribcage without anything clinging at the hip. If you've been avoiding sundresses because they hang straight down like a sack, this is the opposite of that.\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\u003eFit note\u003c\/strong\u003e — runs small for some people; size up if you're unsure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours\u003c\/strong\u003e — Blue, White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaist\u003c\/strong\u003e — empire, sitting high and fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeckline\u003c\/strong\u003e — sweetheart with H straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure\u003c\/strong\u003e — zipper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e — princess seam front and back, flaring from the waist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, made in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis dress runs small for some people.\u003c\/strong\u003e It's designed to sit snugly across the upper body, so there is no ease built into the bodice to absorb a borderline measurement. If you're between sizes, take the larger one — the skirt will still flare correctly, and you lose nothing but a little tension across the bust. The empire seam lands high, well above the natural waist, which is flattering on most torsos but means a longer-waisted frame will feel the seam sitting higher than expected. Rayon has very little stretch, so the zipper does the work rather than the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSunset dinners, anniversary evenings, garden parties, and guest-at-a-beach-wedding duty where you want to look put together without a jacket or wrap. The white reads dressier and photographs well in low light; the blue is the easier everyday choice.\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 — heat is what shrinks it, and there's no room in this bodice to lose.\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 flag fit problems on the page — this one runs small, and we say so\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes XS through 2X in the same dress, both colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.
