It holds close across the bust and rib cage, sits high at the empire seam, then releases into a flared mini. Customers reach for it for evening plans on a warm night — sunset dinner, a cocktail hour, a night out where a long dress would be too much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit\u003c\/strong\u003e — empire waist, snug through the upper body, flared skirt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — mini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStraps\u003c\/strong\u003e — adjustable shoulder 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 — armhole princess seams front and back\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\u003eThe bodice is the deciding factor, not the skirt. It is cut to sit close across the bust and the high waist, so measure your bust rather than going by your usual dress size. Princess seams front and back mean the shaping is built in — there is no give across the chest the way there would be in a straight-cut shift. If you are full-busted or between sizes, take the larger one; the skirt is flared and will not look oversized. The straps adjust, so shoulder-to-bust length is easy to tune. Rayon drapes close, and it has no stretch — the zip does the work of getting you in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSunset dinners, cocktail receptions, birthdays, a night out in town, and warm-weather guest wear where a floor length dress would feel heavy. The high waist reads dressy enough for a restaurant with white tablecloths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRayon: cold wash by hand or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron if needed. Keep it out of a hot dryer — that is what shrinks rayon, and there is no room in a fitted bodice to lose.\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 where a dress is fitted and where it isn't, before you order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCall or write with a bust measurement and we'll advise on the size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.

If you want coverage, this is not the length for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I let the straps out?\u003c\/strong\u003e The shoulder straps are adjustable, which helps if you are long or short through the torso.
