Plus Size Short Sleeve Split Curved Hem Dress | Blue Purple / 0XL 100101618532618

How to measure

For the most accurate fit, measure a similar dress that fits you well or measure your body with a flexible tape measure. When measuring a garment laid flat, double any seam‑to‑seam number to get the full circumference.

Measure your body

1. Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust while wearing a bra you will wear with the dress. Keep the tape level and snug but not tight.
2. Natural waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist (usually above the belly button). Breathe normally.
3. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
4. Shoulder to hem (dress length): Measure from the highest point of your shoulder (where a shoulder seam would sit) down to the desired hemline.
5. Shoulder width (optional): Measure across the back from one shoulder point to the other if you want to check how the shoulder will sit.

Measure the dress (lay flat)

1. Bust (chest): Lay the dress flat and measure across from seam to seam about 1" below the armhole; multiply by 2 for full circumference.
2. Waist: Measure across the narrowest part of the dress, then multiply by 2.
3. Hip: Measure across the fullest part of the skirt/hem area, then multiply by 2.
4. Length: Measure from the highest shoulder point (HPS) straight down to the hem.
5. Sleeve: From shoulder seam to sleeve hem (short sleeve measurement for this style).

Compare your body measurements to the garment measurements and allow 2–4 inches (5–10 cm) of ease for comfortable movement, more if you prefer a looser fit.

Materials & fabric details

Typical composition for this style: knit jersey blend — 95% polyester, 5% spandex. Please check the garment label for exact composition by color or batch.

• Feel: Soft, smooth and drapey with a comfortable amount of stretch for ease of movement.
• Stretch & recovery: Moderate stretch (from spandex) for a forgiving fit that returns to shape.
• Care traits: Wrinkle‑resistant, colorfast, quick‑drying and low‑maintenance.
• Opacity: Mid‑weight and generally opaque; very bright light may require nude undergarments for added coverage.
• Construction: Pull‑on style with short sleeves and a split curved hem — no heavy structure or lining.

Note: some colors/prints or seasonal batches may use slightly different blends (e.g., a higher cotton content). Always follow the label on the garment for exact material information.

Model information

The model is 5'9" (175 cm) and is wearing size 1X (US 14/16) in the photos. Model measurements: bust 42" / 107 cm, waist 34" / 86 cm, hips 48" / 122 cm.

Fit note: This dress is designed to skim the body with moderate stretch. If you are between sizes or prefer extra ease across the bust or hips, consider sizing up.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Turn the dress inside out before washing to protect color and surface finish.
• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash. Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach.
• Avoid fabric softeners (they can reduce elastane performance). Wash with like colors.
• Tumble dry on low or, preferably, reshape and lay flat to dry or hang to dry out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
• If needed, iron on low heat or use a steamer. Do not iron directly on trims; iron inside out.
• Remove promptly from the washer/dryer to reduce wrinkles. For pilling, use a fabric shaver or depiller gently.
• Store folded to prevent shoulder stretching on knit garments. If you hang, use wide or padded hangers.

Following these care steps will help preserve shape, color and the stretch performance of the fabric.

Style tips

• Define the waist: Add a wide or braided belt to create an hourglass silhouette and emphasize your waist.
• Layer smart: Pair with a cropped denim jacket for casual days, a structured blazer for the office, or a long cardigan for a relaxed look.
• Shoes: Sandals or espadrilles for summer; block heels or wedges to add height; ankle boots for cooler months.
• Accessories: Long pendant necklaces or vertical scarves elongate the torso. Statement earrings draw attention upward to the face.
• Undergarments: Smooth, mid‑weight shapewear or a seamless slip enhances the drape; choose nude undergarments under lighter colors.
• Body‑shape tips: Pear shapes: balance with brighter or structured tops; apple shapes: choose belts placed just above the natural waist; hourglass: emphasize your waist; rectangular: add layers and belts to create curves.
• Occasions: Dress up with heels and a clutch for evening; keep it daytime casual with flats and a crossbody bag.
