Colours of this piece

Fit and size

Take your usual size. These run true and are cut loose through the waist, so between two sizes go down if you want the shape closer and up if you plan to wear it over a swimsuit. A maxi on a shorter frame will read as a floor length rather than an ankle length.

The Halife size guide

In plain words

About this piece

A dress in Patchwork Purple Floral: round neck. Cut to skim rather than to hold. It has pockets.

The waist is left alone rather than pinched, so the dress falls from the shoulder and moves when you do. The label gives the fabric as 35% rayon, 60% polyester and 5% spandex. It is not lined, so hold it up to a window before you decide about pale colours.

Wearing it

It works alone in July and under a light layer once the evening turns. Wash it cold and hang it: a summer dress that meets a hot dryer comes back shorter than it left.

Fabric and care

The label gives this piece as 35% rayon, 60% polyester and 5% spandex. A woven holds its shape and does not give, so between two sizes we say take the larger one. Wash cold and hang, and check the sewn-in label before the first wash.

What it does not do

A summer dress is not lined unless the page says lined. A pale one in a light woven will be sheer in direct sun, and that is what a slip is for.

Questions about this piece

Does it have pockets?

Yes, side pockets in the seam. They hold a phone, and they add a little width at the hip when full.

Is it see-through?

It is not lined. In a pale colour, in direct sun, expect it to be sheer enough for a slip.

Which size should I take?

Take your usual size. These run true and are cut loose through the waist, so between two sizes go down if you want the shape closer and up if you plan to wear it over a swimsuit. A maxi on a shorter frame will read as a floor length rather than an ankle length.
