Smocked Floral Tie Shoulder Midi Dress

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape. For body measurements, measure over underwear or a thin layer. For garment measurements, lay the dress flat on a hard surface and smooth gently without stretching the smocking.

Body measurements (choose your size)

1. Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
2. Waist: Measure around your natural waist at the narrowest point.
3. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips (about 7–9" / 18–23 cm below the waist).
4. Length preference: To check midi length, measure from the top of your shoulder down to where you want the hem to fall.

Garment measurements (most accurate fit)

1. Bust (laid flat): Measure across the smocked bodice from side seam to side seam; double this number for full circumference. Note both unstretched and fully stretched measurements when available.
2. Waist (laid flat): Measure across the narrowest point of the dress and double for circumference.
3. Hips (laid flat): Measure across the fullest part of the skirt and double for circumference.
4. Front length (HPS to hem): Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (HPS) straight down to the hem to confirm midi length.
5. Strap/tie length: Measure from the top point where the strap meets the bodice to the end of the tie; ties are adjustable, so include min/max lengths if possible.

Tip: Smocking stretches a lot—if you are between sizes choose based on waist/hip measurement rather than bust alone. For a more fitted look, choose the smaller size if your bust comfortably fits the smocked range.

Materials & construction

Common features for this style:

• Main fabric: Lightweight woven floral—many versions are viscose (rayon) for a soft drape or polyester for easy care. Exact fiber content varies by SKU.
• Smocked bodice: Elasticized shirring that provides stretch and a close fit through the bust.
• Tie shoulders: Self-fabric ties at the shoulders for adjustability and styling detail.
• Lining: Some versions include a lightweight skirt lining (often polyester); others may be unlined. Check the product label for your selected color/print.

Please refer to the product label or the product details on the listing for the exact fiber composition of the item you purchase.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Wash: Hand wash or machine wash on gentle/delicate cycle in cold water with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Place in a mesh bag if machine washing to protect the smocked panel and ties.
• Dry: Do not tumble dry. Gently reshape smocking while damp and hang or lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
• Iron/steam: Steam to remove wrinkles. If ironing, turn inside out and use a low heat setting; avoid ironing directly on smocked elastic—press around it instead.
• Stain care: Blot spills immediately, spot-treat gently with mild detergent and cold water. Avoid bleach and harsh stain removers on printed fabrics.
• Storage: Hang by the straps on a padded hanger or fold carefully to avoid stretching the smocked area. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light.
• Professional care: If the label recommends it (especially for viscose blends), dry cleaning is a safe option.

Style tips

• Casual days: Pair with flat leather sandals or white sneakers and a straw tote for an easy daytime look.
• Dress it up: Add block heels or strappy sandals, delicate jewelry and a clutch for brunch or a summer party.
• Layering: Throw on a cropped denim jacket, a lightweight cardigan or a tailored blazer for cooler evenings.
• Define the waist: Add a slim belt over the smocked seam to create a more defined silhouette.
• Accessory play: Try a wide-brim hat and layered necklaces for a boho vibe, or statement earrings and an updo for a refined finish.
• Seasonal swaps: Espadrilles and sandals in summer; ankle boots and a light trench for transitional weather.

Note: Always check the product page and garment label for the exact materials, measurements and care instructions specific to the item you purchase.
