The whole back panel is smocked from the waist up to the shoulder blades, so it grips and stretches with you instead of hanging off you. Add adjustable straps and a back zip and you get a dress that stays where you put it through a long, warm evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e — X-Small\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours\u003c\/strong\u003e — Black, Cream\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 zip from mid-back down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStraps\u003c\/strong\u003e — adjustable, two button holes on each strap, cut to hide bra straps\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\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\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is stocked in X-Small only, so it suits a genuinely petite frame. The smocked back is the forgiving part — it stretches across the ribcage and upper back, which means the fit is more adaptable than a fixed X-Small woven would be. Set the strap length using the two buttons on each side: shorter buttonhole to lift the bodice, longer to drop the neckline. Rayon drapes close and skims rather than stands away, and the above-knee cut sits shorter on a taller woman. Wear your usual bra — the straps are placed to cover it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSunset dinners, a friend's beach ceremony where you're a guest rather than the bride, resort evenings, and any night warm enough that you don't want sleeves. The back zip means you can get into it without help, which matters when you're travelling alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRayon: cold hand wash or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron if needed. Keep it out of a hot dryer — heat is what shrinks rayon. Press the smocked panel lightly or not at all so the stretch stays lively.\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 what's actually stocked, size by size, before you order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction details listed in full — zips, straps, slits, closures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.

The shoulder straps are positioned to sit over bra straps and hide them, and each strap has two buttonholes so you can adjust the height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it stay up while I'm dancing?\u003c\/strong\u003e That's what the smocked back is for. It grips from the waist to the shoulder blades rather than relying on the straps alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow short is above the knee?\u003c\/strong\u003e It's a short sarong-style dress. On a petite frame it lands just above the knee; on a taller woman it will read shorter than that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the slit at the back for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It's a small 3¼\" centre slit at the hem so you can walk normally in a fitted skirt. It isn't a high slit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paradise Found","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ X-Small","offer_id":59771546337566,"sku":"MS140-185-BLACK-XS","price":145.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Cream \/ X-Small","offer_id":59771546370334,"sku":"MS140-185-CREAM-XS","price":145.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1086\/8608\/2334\/files\/leaves-vintage-paradise-found-100-rayon-hawaiian-aloha-style-sarong-black-cream-in-x-small-only-61_44449805-54fc-410e-9809-234037d5ebd3.jpg?v=1786842951","url":"https:\/\/mauishirts.com\/products\/leaves-hawaiian-sarong-dress","provider":"MauiShirts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
