Lace Sweetheart Neck Flare Sleeve Mini Dress

A romantic lace mini with a sweetheart neckline, fitted bodice and dramatic flared sleeves — ideal for date nights, parties and special occasions.

How to measure

Measure your body (to choose the right size)

1. Use a soft tape measure, stand straight but relaxed and wear lightweight clothing or underwear.
2. Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust with the tape parallel to the floor. Keep arms relaxed at your sides.
3. Underbust (optional): Measure directly under the bust for bra fitting.
4. Waist: Measure around the natural waist (the narrowest point), usually above the belly button.
5. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat — usually 7–9 in (18–23 cm) below the waist.
6. Shoulder width: Measure from shoulder seam point to shoulder seam point across the back.
7. Dress length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (or center back of neck) down to where you want the hem to fall.
8. Sleeve length: For this style, measure from the shoulder seam to the sleeve hem (or to elbow if the sleeve is 3/4).

Tip: If you're between sizes, consider your bust and waist measurements first — the Lace Sweetheart Neck Flare Sleeve Mini Dress has a fitted bodice with a flared skirt, so sizing up gives more ease through the body and sleeves.

Measure a garment (lay-flat method)

1. Lay a similar-fitting dress flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles without stretching the fabric.
2. Bust (flat): Measure across the fullest part from seam to seam and double the number to get the circumference.
3. Waist (flat): Measure across the narrowest part and double.
4. Hips (flat): Measure across the fullest part and double.
5. Length: Measure from center back neck or shoulder point down to hem.
6. Sleeve length & cuff: Measure from shoulder seam to sleeve hem; measure sleeve hem width and double for circumference.

Example: flat bust = 18.5 in → garment bust circumference = 37 in (18.5 × 2). Allow 1–3 in (2.5–7.5 cm) of wearing ease for a comfortable fit depending on how fitted you want the dress to be.

Conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm.

Materials & construction

• Overlay: Delicate floral lace (typically polyester or nylon lace) — lightweight, textured and slightly sheer in places.
• Lining: Soft stretch lining (commonly a polyester/elastane blend) to provide opacity and comfort in the body while allowing movement.
• Construction notes: Fitted bodice with sweetheart neckline, flared sleeves that may be unlined or semi-sheer for a floaty look, and an invisible back zipper for a smooth finish.
• Care label: Exact fabric percentages can vary by batch — always check the sewn-in label for the precise fiber content for your specific piece.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Hand wash cold or machine wash on a gentle/delicate cycle inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the lace.
• Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach and harsh chemicals.
• Do not wring or twist the garment — gently press excess water out with a towel.
• Lay flat to dry or hang to dry away from direct sunlight; avoid tumble drying.
• Iron on low heat inside-out with a pressing cloth, or better yet, use a steamer to remove wrinkles without pressing directly on the lace.
• For stubborn stains or very delicate trims, professional dry cleaning is safe — refer to the garment care label.
• Storage: fold or hang on a padded hanger; avoid sharp jewelry or rough surfaces that can snag lace.

Style tips

• Date night / party: Pair with strappy heels or pointed-toe pumps, a slim metallic clutch and statement earrings. A sleek updo highlights the sweetheart neckline.
• Casual daytime: Dress it down with white sneakers, a cropped denim jacket and a crossbody bag for an effortless, playful look.
• Cooler weather: Layer with opaque tights, ankle boots and a tailored wool coat or a moto leather jacket for an edge.
• Formal look: Add a slim waist belt to define the silhouette, heeled sandals and delicate layered necklaces.
• Undergarments: A strapless or adhesive bra works best with the sweetheart neckline; opt for seamless, nude-shade undergarments or a slip if you prefer full opacity under the lace.
• Accessories & makeup: Keep jewelry minimal if the lace is heavily patterned — choose one statement piece (earrings or a ring). Romantic waves or a low bun complement the dress's styling.
• Proportions: The mini length elongates the legs — add heels for extra length or flats for a more casual vibe; the flared sleeves add visual balance to a fitted bodice.
