Color Block V-Neck Bodycon Midi Dress

How to measure

Use a soft tape measure and measure over light clothing or underwear. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight. If possible, have someone help for the most accurate results.

Measuring your body

1. Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, across the nipples and under the arms. Keep the tape level and relaxed.
2. Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist (natural waist), usually above the belly button. Breathe normally and keep the tape comfortably snug.
3. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/seat. This is typically 7–9 inches (18–23 cm) below your natural waist depending on your proportions.
4. Shoulder width: Measure across the back from the outer edge of one shoulder to the other where a seam would sit.
5. Dress length: Measure from the center back at the base of the neck down to where you want the hem to fall (midi typically hits mid-calf).

Measuring the garment (recommended if you already have it)

1. Lay the dress flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles without stretching the fabric.
2. Bust (garment): Measure across the front 1" (2–3 cm) below the armholes from seam to seam, then multiply by 2.
3. Waist (garment): Measure across the narrowest part of the dress front, then multiply by 2.
4. Hips (garment): Measure across the fullest part of the skirt section, then multiply by 2.
5. Length (garment): Measure from the center back neck to the hem.

Tip: This dress is bodycon with stretch—if you prefer a less fitted look or are between sizes, consider selecting the next size up. To convert: 1 inch = 2.54 cm.

Fabric & materials

Check the garment care label for the exact composition. Bodycon midi dresses like this one are commonly made from stretch blends to provide a smooth, form-fitting silhouette. Typical fabric mixes include:

• Polyester + Elastane/Spandex (common): durable, colorfast, quick-drying, and provides the stretch and recovery that keeps a bodycon dress fitted.
• Rayon/Viscose blends: softer, with a more fluid drape; often blended with nylon or elastane for shape retention.
• Lining (if present): often polyester or a lightweight knit to prevent cling and improve opacity.

Fabric characteristics at a glance:

Polyester

Holds color, resists wrinkles and shrinking; easy to care for.

Elastane / Spandex

Provides stretch and bounce-back; essential for a close-fitting bodycon silhouette.

Rayon / Viscose

Soft, breathable and drapey but may require gentler care.

Model & fit

Model information (for reference): Height: 5'9" (175 cm). Model is shown wearing a size S. Typical model measurements: Bust 32" (81 cm) • Waist 24" (61 cm) • Hips 34" (86 cm).

Fit notes: This is a bodycon style designed to fit close to the body and highlight curves. The fabric includes stretch for comfort and movement. If you prefer a roomier fit, choose one size up.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Turn the dress inside out before washing to protect color and any printed panels.
• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors, or hand wash for extra care.
• Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or strong stain removers unless the care label permits them.
• Avoid fabric softener frequently—it can reduce elastane performance over time.
• Air dry flat or hang to dry. If you must tumble dry, use low heat and remove promptly.
• If ironing is needed, use a low temperature and press inside out or place a cloth between iron and fabric; steaming is preferred to remove wrinkles without flattening the fabric’s stretch.
• Store hanging on a shaped hanger to maintain shoulder lines, or fold carefully to avoid creasing if space is limited.
• To prevent snags and pilling, avoid rough surfaces and remove jewelry that might catch on the knit.

Style tips

• Daytime casual: Layer with a cropped denim jacket and white sneakers for a relaxed, modern look.
• Office-appropriate: Add a structured blazer and low block heels. Choose subtle jewelry and a sleek tote.
• Date night: Pair with strappy heels, a slim belt to accentuate the waist, statement earrings and a clutch.
• Seasonal layering: In cooler months wear with tights and knee boots; add a long wool coat for warmth and polish.
• Color-block advice: Pick shoes or a bag that match one of the color-panel shades for a coordinated look, or keep accessories neutral (nude or black) to elongate the silhouette.
• Neckline styling: The V-neck works well with layered delicate necklaces or a single pendant to draw the eye vertically.
• For added shaping: light shapewear can smooth lines without altering the silhouette dramatically.
