This dress features a relaxed, loose-waist fit with an A-line silhouette that skims the body without clinging. The generous cut provides comfortable movement and flatters all body types.

Important Sizing Note: This item uses Asian sizing, which runs 1-2 sizes smaller than standard US sizing. We strongly recommend sizing up at least one size from your usual US size. For example, if you typically wear a US Medium, we recommend ordering size L or XL for a comfortable fit. When in doubt between two sizes, always choose the larger size.

Reference Size Chart:
Fit Tips:
- Bust measurement is the most important dimension - compare your bust circumference to the chart and size up if you're between measurements
- The dress length (114-118cm / 44.9-46.5 inches) typically falls mid-calf on most heights, creating a classic midi silhouette
- The loose waist design means you don't need an exact waist match - focus on bust and shoulder fit
- Please allow 1-2cm variance in measurements due to manual measuring and natural fabric stretch
- If you prefer a more fitted look, order your recommended Asian size; if you want the intended relaxed, artistic fit, size up an additional size
- When in doubt or between sizes, always size up for comfort
Features & Fabric
- Key Features: Flattering V-neckline, comfortable half sleeves, flowing A-line skirt silhouette, loose waist for unrestricted movement, splicing construction detail that adds subtle design interest, versatile midi length, art retro aesthetic with modern wearability
- Material Composition: Cotton and linen blend fabric (primary composition: cotton base with natural linen fibers)
- Fabric Feel: Breathable and lightweight with the natural texture characteristic of linen blends. The cotton-linen combination creates a soft yet slightly textured hand feel that's cool against the skin. Fabric has a beautiful natural drape that flows elegantly while maintaining structure. Slightly crisp when new, softens beautifully with washing and wear. The weave is substantial enough to be opaque while remaining light and airy for summer comfort.
- Stretch: Minimal to no stretch - this is a woven natural fiber fabric, so sizing is important. The loose-fit design compensates for the lack of stretch, providing comfortable movement through the silhouette rather than fabric elasticity.
- Lining: Unlined for maximum breathability and lightweight summer wear
- Opacity: Opaque - the fabric weight provides full coverage without requiring a slip or layering piece
- Care Instructions: Machine wash cold with similar colors on gentle cycle. Use mild detergent suitable for natural fibers. Tumble dry low or line dry to preserve fabric integrity and minimize shrinkage. Remove promptly to reduce wrinkles. Iron on medium heat while slightly damp for best results, or embrace the natural linen texture for an effortlessly relaxed look. Cotton-linen blends may wrinkle naturally, which adds to the artistic, lived-in aesthetic. Imported.

Perfect for beach town browsing, seaside lunches, or weekend getaways where comfort meets understated elegance.
- Artistic Urban Explorer: Style the orange or green dress with white canvas sneakers and a crossbody canvas bag. Layer with a denim jacket for cooler mornings and add vintage-inspired round sunglasses. Ideal for art gallery openings, outdoor markets, museum days, or creative workspace casual Fridays.
- Garden Party Sophistication: Elevate any color with strappy wedge sandals in tan or neutral tones and a woven belt at the waist to define your silhouette.

Styling Q&A
- Q: How long does shipping take?
- A: This item qualifies for standard delivery and typically arrives in 7-12 business days within the USA.
- Q: I'm confused about sizing - I'm usually a US Medium. What size should I order?
- A: Since this uses Asian sizing which runs 1-2 sizes smaller, we recommend ordering size L or XL if you're typically a US Medium. Check the bust measurement in the size chart - if your bust is around 38-40 inches, the L (42.5 inch bust) or XL (44.1 inch bust) would provide the intended relaxed fit. When in doubt, size up for comfort.
- Q: Is this dress see-through or do I need a slip?
- A: The cotton-linen fabric is fully opaque and does not require a slip or undergarment beyond your usual underwear. The fabric weight provides complete coverage while remaining breathable and lightweight for summer.
- Q: Will this dress wrinkle a lot? I'm worried about traveling with it.
- A: Cotton-linen blends do naturally wrinkle, which is part of their relaxed, artistic charm. For travel, roll rather than fold to minimize creases. You can steam or iron on arrival, or embrace the lived-in texture which suits the dress's bohemian aesthetic. Many wearers find the natural wrinkling adds character rather than looking unkempt.
- Q: What type of bra works best with the V-neckline?
- A: A standard bra works well, or try a plunge or V-neck style bra if you prefer. The neckline is moderate - flattering without being too revealing - so you have flexibility. For a wireless option, bralettes also work beautifully given the dress's relaxed, artistic vibe.
- Q: Can I dress this up for a semi-casual event or is it too casual?
- A: Absolutely! The dress is incredibly versatile. Add wedges or heeled sandals, statement jewelry, and a structured bag to elevate it for garden parties, vineyard visits, casual weddings, or dinner events. The art retro aesthetic and quality fabric give it enough polish to transition from day to evening effortlessly.
- Q: Which color is most versatile for building outfits?
- A: Beige and blue are the most versatile neutrals that pair with almost any accessory color. Green offers an earthy, nature-inspired option that's still very wearable. Orange makes the boldest statement and is perfect if you want the dress to be the focal point of your outfit. Choose based on your existing wardrobe and personal color preferences.
