Floral Lace Trim Tie Back Dress

A floral dress finished with lace trim and a tie back, which is a lot of pretty detail handled with a light touch. The smocking gives it shape without structure, the ruffles and frill soften the edges, and the tie at the back lets you decide how close the fit sits. It is the kind of dress that looks like more effort than it took.

The fabric is 95% Polyester, 5% Spandex, listed as slightly stretchy, and the body is not lined, so it wears light through a warm day. Sizes run S to 2XL, with length from 37 in at S through 39.2 in at 2XL, bust from 37 in to 45.7 in and waist from 26.8 in to 35.4 in. Because the back ties and the panels are smocked, the fit is forgiving across a range rather than fixed at one measurement. The full numbers are in the table below and are worth reading before you choose a size.

Wear it with flat sandals for a summer afternoon, or add a heeled sandal and a small bag when it needs to work harder in the evening. A denim jacket over the top handles a cool breeze and takes the sweetness down a notch if the florals feel like a lot. White trainers do the same job in a more relaxed way. The lace trim rewards keeping jewelry simple, so a fine chain is plenty. It is an easy pick for a garden party, a holiday dinner, or a Saturday where you want to feel put together without planning it.
