The empire drawstring sits under the bust and you pull it to whatever you want — snug for a dinner, loose after a plate lunch. No zip, no buttons, nothing to fuss with. It goes on over your head and the tie handles the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit\u003c\/strong\u003e — empire waist with adjustable drawstring tie front, pull-over style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — knee length\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\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 vertical bust darts mean the bodice is shaped rather than tubular, so it holds a defined line across the chest instead of hanging flat. Below the drawstring the skirt releases and skims — it doesn't cling at the hip, and rayon falls straighter than cotton, so the knee-length hem hangs rather than flares. If you're fuller through the bust, the darts and the lined top give you more support than an unlined shift. The drawstring gives you real range at the ribcage, which is why this is a forgiving cut for anyone between two sizes. Call us before ordering and we'll measure the piece you're looking at.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLu'au dinners, resort restaurants where you want something more finished than a sundress, church on Sunday, and travel days where you want one dress that goes from the plane to a meal without a change. Knee length means you can sit at a table comfortably and it won't drag on sand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold wash or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron if needed. Rayon should never go in a hot dryer — that's where it shrinks and that's not something we can fix afterwards.\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'll measure a garment and read you the numbers before you buy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.
