Paisley Print Twist Detail Smocked Back Spaghetti Straps Dress — Product Information

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape. For best results measure over light clothing or underwear, stand relaxed, and keep the tape parallel to the floor. If you're measuring the garment itself, lay it flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles (do not stretch smocked areas unless instructed).

Measure your body

• Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, across the nipples and around the back. Keep the tape level and comfortably snug.
• Underbust (ribcage): Measure directly beneath the bust. Helpful for smocked-back garments where the elastic sits on the ribcage.
• Waist: Measure around the narrowest point of your natural waist (usually above the belly button).
• High hip / Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat (about 7–9 inches / 18–23 cm below the waist for many bodies).
• Shoulder-to-hem (dress length): Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (or where the strap meets the bodice) straight down to the hem to determine desired dress length.
• Strap preference: Note that adjustable spaghetti straps change the neckline height — measure strap length from front seam to back seam if you need to match an existing dress.

Measure the dress (laid flat)

• Chest / Bodice width: Lay the dress flat and measure straight across the front from underarm seam to underarm seam. Double this number to get the full circumference.
• Waist (smocked panel): Measure across the smocked section while the dress is relaxed (unstretched) and again when gently stretched to show min–max fit. Double the flat measurement for circumference.
• Hip / Hem width: Measure the hem across the front and double for circumference.
• Length: Measure from the top edge of the front bodice (where the strap meets) down the center front to the hem.
• Straps: Measure from front strap seam to back strap seam; check adjusters on the straps if present.

Conversions: 1 in = 2.54 cm. Record both body and garment measurements when choosing size, especially since the smocked back adds stretch.

Materials

Composition for this style typically includes:

• Main fabric: Lightweight woven fabric such as viscose (rayon) or a polyester blend — chosen for soft drape and printed detail.
• Smocking: Elasticized smocking thread (polyester with elastane or nylon core) to provide stretch and comfortable fit across the back.
• Straps & trims: Self-fabric spaghetti straps with plastic or metal adjusters; twist detail formed from the same fabric.
• Lining: Some versions may include a light polyester lining at the bodice or skirt for opacity—check the product label for details.

Exact fabric percentages vary by production batch. For the definitive composition, refer to the garment label or the product specification on the page.

Care guide — To keep it lovely longer

• Always check the garment care label first; follow any specific instructions provided.
• Hand wash or machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Turn the dress inside out to protect the print and twist detail.
• Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and avoid fabric softeners (they can reduce elastic life in smocking).
• If machine washing, place the dress in a mesh laundry bag to reduce abrasion.
• Reshape the smocked area while damp and lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight to prevent color fade.
• Do not tumble dry; high heat can damage viscose blends and elastic smocking. If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting and press on the reverse side or use a steamer.
• Store folded or on a padded hanger; avoid hanging by thin straps for long periods if the straps are delicate.

Style tips

• Daytime casual: Pair the paisley print dress with flat leather sandals or white canvas sneakers and a straw tote for an effortless weekend look.
• Elevated look: Add a cropped denim or linen blazer, strappy block heels, and layered gold necklaces to dress it up for brunch or a summer evening.
• Beach to bar: Wear over a swimsuit as a cover-up with slide sandals and a wide-brim hat; swap to wedges and statement earrings for evening.
• Layering for chillier days: Add a fitted cardigan or a leather jacket and ankle boots; a slim belt above the smocked panel creates a defined waist.
• Accessories: Because the paisley print is the focal point, stick to simple metallic jewelry or muted leathers—cream, tan, rust, or navy accessories complement common paisley palettes.
