Embroidered Adjustable Strap Mini Dress in Charcoal

This POL mini dress is a woven sleeveless dress with a round neck and adjustable straps that are cut to sit friendly with a bra, which is a small kindness that a lot of strappy dresses forget entirely. Delicate embroidery decorates the dress, and a vintage washing gives the cloth a soft texture from the first wear rather than the tenth.

The material composition is 100% VISCOSE and it is slightly stretchy. Viscose is the reason this dress feels the way it does. It is light, it breathes, and it falls softly against the body rather than holding away from it, which is what you want from a summer dress on a genuinely hot day. The body is not lined. The regular fit and the lightweight cloth are what keep you cool when the weather is not being reasonable, and the adjustable straps let you set the length of the bodice to your own torso rather than the pattern maker's.

Charcoal is an underrated colour for a summer dress. It has all the ease of black without the heaviness, and it lets the embroidery read clearly against the ground rather than getting lost in it. Flat sandals and a straw bag make this a daytime dress. A denim jacket handles a cool evening. Once summer ends, a long sleeve tee underneath and boots will carry it into autumn without much argument. Gold jewelry warms the charcoal. Silver keeps it cool and quiet.
