It’s the kind of dress that pairs well with a tropical sunset and a sweet, slushy, paper-umbrella-adorned cocktail. It has fluttery sleeves, a tie-front bodice (smocked in back for a close but comfortable fit), and a full, floor-sweeping tiered skirt (the high-low hem just adds to the drama). And let’s talk about that print: splashy, scaled-up Technicolor florals that capture the unbridled joy of high summer.

100% cotton poplin.

The " it " dress for Summer 2023. Never worn. Does not suit me.
