{"product_id":"womens-plus-size-long-sleeve-pleated-skirt-suit-with-lace-up-detail","title":"Womens Plus Size Long Sleeve Tie Neck Pleated Maxi Dress with Belt","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe pleats catch the light before anyone works out what colour it is\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnife pleats, all the way round, falling from a matching belt at the waist to an ankle length hem. The cloth has a high shine, so every fold reads as a separate line of light and the skirt keeps moving after you stop. Above the belt the bodice blouses out instead of fitting close, gathered at the shoulder and again at the cuff, so the whole shape sits soft on top and structured underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neckline is a small keyhole V, closed with a self tie cord finished with a tiny flower ornament. That cord is a tie, not a laced fastening. There is not one eyelet on the garment, and nothing about it opens or adjusts the fit. The maker gives the pleated part at 96 cm at 1XL rising to 100 cm at 5XL, with sleeves of 63 cm to 67 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe belt is in the box\u003c\/strong\u003e The maker packing list reads one dress and one belt, and the belt appears on every colour photographed.

Setting the pleats with heat is what stops them from dropping out, and the maker says so directly. The belt is doing structural work too: it is what separates the loose bodice from the pleated skirt and gives the eye the line it needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Product Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Woven polyester and spandex with a high sheen; keyhole V neck with a self tie cord and a flower ornament; long blouson sleeves 63 cm at 1XL to 67 cm at 5XL; knife pleated skirt 96 cm to 100 cm; matching belt included; chart bust 118 cm to 142 cm, waist 88 cm to 112 cm; sizes 1XL to 5XL; ships as one dress and one belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow It Fits Your Routine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe one thing worth doing before the first wear is deciding how much of the bodice you want blousing over the belt, because that is the adjustment this dress gives you. Pull more through for a softer line, less for a sharper one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is an occasion dress rather than a desk dress, and the shine is the reason. Under artificial light in the evening the pleats do most of the work, which is why it photographs better than it looks on a hanger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHang it, do not fold it. Pleats set with heat will hold, but a crease pressed across them by a suitcase is the one thing that fights them. The maker publishes no washing instruction on the sheet, so follow the sewn in care label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the belt come with it?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The maker packing list reads one dress and one belt, and the belt is on every photograph in every colour. The clutch bag and the shoes in those photographs are styling and are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the neckline a real lace up?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. There is a self tie cord through a keyhole at the V and it does knot, but there is not a single eyelet anywhere on the garment and it opens and closes nothing. The supplier calls it a lace up detail. We are calling it a tie, because that is what it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this one dress or a top and a skirt?\u003c\/strong\u003e The maker packing list says one dress. Its own chart, however, measures a top length of 66 cm to 70 cm and a skirt length of 96 cm to 100 cm as two separate figures, which is how a two piece set is usually charted. We cannot resolve that from here, so we are describing what the packing list guarantees: one garment plus the belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e The pleated section alone runs 96 cm at 1XL to 100 cm at 5XL from the waist down. On the model it finishes at the ankle. This is a maxi length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"width: 100%; overflow-x: auto; -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse; min-width: 480px; width: 100%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003eFabric\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003eWoven polyester and spandex with a high sheen, per the maker\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eNeckline\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eKeyhole V with a self tie cord and a flower ornament.
