Polka Dot Cutout Front Mini Dress

Polka dots are as classic as a print gets, which is exactly why a cutout works so well here. The dots keep the dress friendly and familiar and the opening at the front pulls it somewhere sharper, so the whole thing lands between sweet and knowing. A tie detail draws the waist in and lets you decide how open that cutout actually sits.

The fabric is 100% polyester and slightly stretchy, so there is just enough give to move in without the dress losing its line. The body is not lined. Length runs short and true to a mini, measuring 31.9 inches in a small up to 33.5 inches in a large. The waist opens from 26.4 inches through to 33.9 inches at the top of the range and the bust from 33.1 up to 40.2 inches, so there is a fair amount of built in adjustment across the three sizes.

White and brown pull it in opposite directions. The white version is crisp and reads as a holiday dress almost immediately, while the brown is warmer and quieter and works surprisingly well into autumn with a boot. Flat sandals and a raffia bag keep it easy for daytime, and a heeled mule with gold jewelry takes it out for the evening. Because the cutout already gives the front something to look at, leave the neckline bare and let the dress carry itself.
