Colours of this piece

Fit and size

Take your usual size. These run true and are cut loose through the waist, so between two sizes go down if you want the shape closer and up if you plan to wear it over a swimsuit. A maxi on a shorter frame will read as a floor length rather than an ankle length.

The Halife size guide

In plain words

About this piece

A dress in Royal Blue: sleeveless, crew neck and mini. The hem sits above the knee, which is the length people pack for heat. It has a tie and a ruffle.

The waist is left alone rather than pinched, so the dress falls from the shoulder and moves when you do. The label gives the fabric as 100% polyester. It is not lined, so hold it up to a window before you decide about pale colours.

Wearing it

Sleeveless dresses go under a cardigan the second the air conditioning starts, and the cardigans bench is cut for exactly that. Wash it cold and hang it: a summer dress that meets a hot dryer comes back shorter than it left.

Fabric and care

The label gives this piece as 100% polyester. A woven holds its shape and does not give, so between two sizes we say take the larger one. Machine wash cold, per the label.

What it does not do

A summer dress is not lined unless the page says lined. A pale one in a light woven will be sheer in direct sun, and that is what a slip is for.

Questions about this piece

Does it have pockets?

No. Where a dress here has pockets the page says so, and this one does not.

Is it see-through?

It is not lined. In a pale colour, in direct sun, expect it to be sheer enough for a slip.

Which size should I take?

Take your usual size. These run true and are cut loose through the waist, so between two sizes go down if you want the shape closer and up if you plan to wear it over a swimsuit. A maxi on a shorter frame will read as a floor length rather than an ankle length.
