Aemi + Co Square Neck Babydoll Dress with Pockets — Product Info, Measuring, Care & Styling

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape. Measure while wearing a well-fitting bra (for body measurements) or measure the garment laid flat (for product measurements). Keep the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight.

1. Bust (body) — Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping tape level under your arms and across your back.
2. Bust (garment / flat) — Lay the dress flat, smooth wrinkles. Measure straight across the chest 1" below the armhole seam; double that number for the full bust circumference.
3. Underbust / Empire seam — For a babydoll dress, measure around the body directly under the bust (where the bodice seam sits). For the garment, measure flat across the seam and double it.
4. Waist — Measure at your natural waist (or at the dress’s waist seam if it’s defined). For the garment, measure flat across the narrowest part of the dress and double.
5. Hip — Measure around the fullest part of your hips. For the garment, measure the skirt across its fullest point and double.
6. Length — Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (next to the neck seam) straight down to the hem. For a square-neck dress, you can also measure from the base of the neck or from the underbust seam to hem, depending on which fit you want to check.
7. Shoulder width & armhole — Measure across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam; measure armhole depth from shoulder seam down to the bottom of the armhole.
8. Pocket — If you need pocket capacity, measure pocket opening width and pocket depth from the opening to the bottom of the pocket bag.

Fit tips for this style: Babydoll dresses are designed with extra ease in the skirt. Choose size based on the bodice/shoulder measurements if you prefer a more fitted top; choose by bust/underbust if you want the neckline and fit across the chest to sit comfortably. Allow 2–4" (5–10 cm) of ease at the bust/waist for a relaxed babydoll silhouette.

Materials

Exact composition can vary by season and color—always check the product listing or the sewn care label for the definitive fabric content. Typical materials used for this style include:

• Woven cotton or cotton blends — breathable, lightweight to medium-weight, low stretch, natural feel.
• Viscose / rayon — soft drape, slightly more flow, medium weight, may be slightly delicate when wet.
• Linen blends — textured, breathable, slightly more prone to wrinkling (often blended with cotton or viscose to reduce stiffness).
• Synthetic blends (polyester blends) — more wrinkle resistant and colorfast; may feel smoother and have less breathability than natural fibers.

Construction notes: pockets are usually self-lined (same fabric), buttons/trims typically match the fabric. If stretch is required, check the listing for “elastane/spandex” in the composition—most woven babydoll dresses are non-stretch.

Model information (example)

Many listings show model sizing so you can compare. Example model info often displayed with this style:

• Height: 5'9" (175 cm)
• Bust: 32" (81 cm) | Waist: 24" (61 cm) | Hips: 35" (89 cm)
• Wearing size: Small

If the product page you are using shows different model dimensions, use those to compare to your own measurements and choose the most comparable size.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

Care recommendations depend on fabric—follow the garment label first. General best practices:

• Check the sewn care label for the exact instructions before washing.
• Machine wash cold or gentle cycle with like colors for cotton/poly blends. Use a mild detergent.
• For viscose/rayon: hand wash in cold water or use the machine’s delicate cycle inside a mesh bag. Avoid wringing—gently reshape and lay flat or hang to dry.
• Avoid hot water and high-heat tumble dry to reduce shrinkage—line dry or tumble dry low if the label permits.
• Turn the dress inside out before washing to protect surface color and trims; empty pockets first.
• Use a warm iron on the reverse side or a steamer to remove wrinkles. For linen blends, iron while slightly damp for best results.
• Do not bleach. If dry cleaning is recommended on the label, follow that instruction for best longevity.
• Store on a hanger to keep the square neckline crisp, or fold carefully to avoid shoulder bumps; keep out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.

Quick fixes: mend small snags right away, replace loose buttons promptly, and use a fabric refresher or light steam between wears to reduce frequent washing.

Style tips

• Daytime casual — Pair with white sneakers or flat sandals, a straw tote, and minimal layered necklaces to play up the square neckline.
• Brunch / garden party — Add espadrille wedges, a woven belt to cinch the waist, and a wide-brim hat for a polished, summery look.
• Evening — Swap to heeled mules, add delicate drop earrings and a clutch. A cropped blazer or lightweight shawl finishes the look without hiding the square neckline.
• Transitional weather — Layer a fitted turtleneck or long-sleeve tee under the dress; add tights and ankle boots. A denim jacket or leather moto adds structure to the loose skirt.
• Accessories — Square necks look great with chokers or short layered necklaces that sit above the neckline; opt for a narrow belt to create a more defined waist when desired.
• Pockets — Useful for small items (phone, keys), but avoid overfilling to keep the dress silhouette smooth.
• Body shapes — The babydoll cut flatters pear and apple shapes by skimming over the midsection and highlighting legs and neckline; if you prefer a defined waist, add a belt at the empire seam.

Notes: Always refer to the product page for exact fabric composition, official size chart, and the model’s real measurements where provided. Allow for small measurement variances (approximately ±1" / 2–3 cm) between batches and different colors.
