It pulls its shape from a bias cut rather than a waistband, so it moves with you instead of gripping, and the sleeves mean you don't need a wrap for an air-conditioned dining room. There's a girl's dress in the same print, which is the reason most of these leave the showroom in pairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e — Small\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours\u003c\/strong\u003e — Navy Blue, Purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — tea length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut\u003c\/strong\u003e — bias cut, back waist darts, flared bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSleeves\u003c\/strong\u003e — yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, made in Hawaii\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — Shannon Marie by RJC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStocked in Small only, so this is a dress for a smaller frame — we can't size you up in this print. The bias cut skims rather than clings, and the back waist darts give shape without a defined waist seam, which suits a straighter figure as well as an hourglass. Rayon hangs closer to the body than cotton does, so it will follow your line more than a stiffer fabric would. Tea length sits below the knee and above the ankle; on a shorter frame it reads closer to a midi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFamily portrait sessions, a granddaughter's birthday, church on a warm Sunday, a lu'au where you'd rather not be in a long dress, and resort dinners where the flare gives you something to dance in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCoordinating Pieces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Melodic Tendril Floral Girl's Ruffle Bottom Dress uses the same print, so a mother and daughter can match properly rather than approximately.
