Womens Lavender Summer Dress with Pockets and Side Slit

A lightweight lavender summer dress featuring side-seam pockets and a tasteful side slit for easy movement — perfect for warm-weather days and effortless styling.

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape, measure over light clothing or underwear, keep the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight. Record measurements in inches or centimeters.

1. Bust — Measure around the fullest part of your bust/chest with arms relaxed at your sides. Keep the tape level across your back.
2. Waist (natural) — Measure around the narrowest part of your torso (usually above the belly button), where your body naturally creases when you bend to the side.
3. Hips — Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, approximately 20 cm (8") below the waist. Keep the tape level.
4. High Point Shoulder (HPS) to hem — Dress length — Measure from the highest point of your shoulder at the base of the neck straight down to where you want the hem to fall. This is the length typically listed on product pages.
5. Shoulder width — Measure from one shoulder seam to the other across the back (if the garment has visible shoulder seams).
6. Side slit height — Measure from the hem upward to the top of the slit. Compare this to your preferred leg exposure.
7. Pocket depth — Insert the tape into the pocket opening until it reaches the bottom to determine usable depth; measure opening width across the seam if needed.

Tip for comparing sizes: lay a similar-fitting dress flat and measure across (chest, waist, hips, length). For flat measurements across a garment, double the across measurement to get the circumference. Allow 2–4 cm (0.75–1.5") of ease for a relaxed fit; reduce ease for a more fitted look.

Materials

Below are common fabric types used for lightweight summer dresses and what to expect from each. Check the product label or product page for the exact composition.

• Viscose / Rayon — Soft, drapey and breathable with a fluid silhouette. Tends to feel cool on the skin; best cared for with gentle washing.
• Cotton — Natural and breathable; can be crisp or soft depending on weave. Easy-care but may shrink slightly on first wash.
• Linen or Linen Blends — Very breathable and cool, with a textured look. Wrinkles naturally, which gives a relaxed aesthetic.
• Polyester Blends — Durable and wrinkle-resistant with easy maintenance; may be blended with natural fibers for improved comfort.

Construction notes:

• Side-seam pockets are typically made from the same fabric as the dress and are integrated into the seams.
• The side slit is usually finished with a reinforced seam for durability; length varies by design and size.
• Many summer dresses are unlined for better breathability; if lined, the lining is often lightweight polyester or cotton blend.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

General care recommendations to preserve color, shape and fabric quality.

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash; use a mild detergent and avoid bleach.
• Wash with similar colors to prevent dye transfer; wash inside out to protect the outer surface.
• Reshape while damp and hang to dry or lay flat in the shade to avoid sun fading. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight when drying.
• If tumble drying is necessary for blends, use a low-heat setting and remove promptly to reduce wrinkles.
• Iron on low heat or use a steamer; for viscose/rayon, iron inside out on a low setting or use a cloth between the iron and fabric.
• Store hanging or folded in a cool, dry place; use padded hangers for delicate straps to prevent stretching.

Quick stain tip: gently blot fresh stains with cold water and a mild soap; avoid rubbing. Treat and launder promptly following the fabric-specific guidance above.

Style tips

• Casual daytime: pair with white canvas sneakers and a straw tote for a breezy weekend look.
• Beach or resort: add flat leather sandals or espadrilles, a wide-brim hat and oversized sunglasses.
• Dress it up: cinch the waist with a slim belt, add heeled sandals and gold-toned jewelry for a polished evening outfit.
• Layering: throw on a cropped denim jacket, lightweight cardigan or a linen blazer for cooler evenings.
• Color pairings: lavender looks great with neutrals (white, beige, tan), soft greens (sage), navy, or metallic accessories (gold/silver).
• Accessories: delicate layered necklaces, stacked bracelets and a compact crossbody or clutch complement the soft color and silhouette.

Pro tip: a thin belt redefines the silhouette without sacrificing the practicality of pockets or the movement provided by the side slit.
