Why It Works
Allover cotton eyelet and a tiered silhouette give this shirt dress texture and movement without any styling effort.
- The broderie anglaise eyelet fabric adds visual depth at the fabric level, so the dress reads as considered and polished without embellishment or accessories
- At 41 inches with a loose tiered cut, it works for professional environments where comfort and coverage matter equally
- The stand collar and button-front placket give it the structure of a shirt dress while the tiered skirt keeps the silhouette relaxed and easy to wear through a full day

Fit Logic
- Silhouette: Relaxed, non-fitted shift silhouette with a loose tiered skirt; falls straight from the shoulder through a three-tiered construction to 41 inches at the hem; no defined waist seam
- Best For: Plus size frames that prefer non-constricting, mid-length coverage; the tiered volume works best on taller plus frames as the 41-inch length will hit at or just below the knee depending on height
- Styling Tip: Add a slim leather belt at the natural waist between the first and second tier to define the silhouette without disrupting the tiered construction
Care Notes
- Fabric: Shell: 100% Cotton eyelet; Lining: 100% Polyester
- Washing: Dry clean only
- Drying: Do not machine dry; lay flat or hang after dry cleaning
- Ironing: If needed, press cotton shell on a low-to-medium setting; avoid direct heat on eyelet cutwork
- Special Notes: The broderie anglaise eyelet construction is delicate — dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the fabric structure and prevent fraying at the cutwork openings
