{"product_id":"womens-v-neck-printed-a-line-short-sleeve-dress","title":"Womens V Neck Kimono Sleeve Printed Maxi Dress with Side Slit","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe kimono sleeves move before you do\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou pull it on over your head in the time it takes the kettle to click, and that is the whole operation. No zip to reach behind you for, no hooks, no belt to hunt down. The gathered seam sitting under the bust draws the shape in on its own and lets everything below it fall in long vertical folds to the ankle. Somewhere between the hallway and the car, the open side seam finds your knee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is one length of printed polyester, cut so the sleeves come out of the body rather than being set into a shoulder. That is why the shoulder line sits wide and soft instead of perching on the point of your shoulder, and why the sleeve finishes around the elbow at 37 cm on the smallest size and 40 cm on the largest. The maker measures the dress itself at 131 cm at S and 134 cm at XL, and leaves one side seam open from roughly mid thigh down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNothing to fasten\u003c\/strong\u003e The maker lists the closure as pullover.

This one gathers the waist instead, so the seam sits under the bust and closes on whatever is behind it, which is also why the maker chart shows a relaxed waist of 64 cm at S climbing to 80 cm at XL while the bust runs 92 cm to 108 cm. The border prints are worked so the pattern runs in vertical bands from neckline to hem, which is why the skirt reads as columns rather than as a repeated motif scattered across the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Product Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyester; deep V neckline; kimono cut sleeves measuring 37 cm at S to 40 cm at XL; gathered seam under the bust; dress length 131 cm at S to 134 cm at XL; one side seam left open from mid thigh; pullover, no fastening of any kind; three separate prints; sizes S to XL; ships as one dress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow It Fits Your Routine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first wear is usually the one that tells you where the slit sits on your own leg, because that varies far more with height than the length does. Stand in front of a mirror, take a normal stride, and you will know straight away whether you want it as it is or with a slip underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the second week it tends to become the thing you reach for when the forecast has decided for you. Flat sandals in the morning, a heeled sandal in the evening, and the hem clears both because the difference of a few centimetres lands inside the length the maker gives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor storage, it folds down the vertical folds it already wants to make, which is why it comes out of a case in better condition than a structured dress does. Follow whatever the sewn in care label tells you, since the maker publishes no washing instruction on the product sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is this dress really?\u003c\/strong\u003e The maker chart gives the dress itself as 131 cm at S, 132 cm at M, 133 cm at L and 134 cm at XL, measured on the garment. On most wearers that lands at the ankle. It is a maxi, not a midi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Dark blue option actually dark blue?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The option photo attached to that choice shows an ivory ground carrying a folk floral border print in cornflower blue and rust, not a dark blue dress. The option name does not describe it well, so read the photo attached to the option before you add to cart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it lined, and can you see through it?\u003c\/strong\u003e The maker does not state a lining anywhere on the sheet, and we are not going to promise you one. Treat it as a single layer of printed polyester and add a slip if that matters to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I read the size chart?\u003c\/strong\u003e Those numbers describe the garment, not your body, and the waist figure is the gathered seam measured relaxed, so it stretches past the number shown. The bust figure of 92 cm at S to 108 cm at XL is the more useful one to compare against yourself.\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;\"\u003ePolyester, as listed by 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;\"\u003eDeep V\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003eSleeves\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003eKimono cut, one piece with the body, 37 cm at S to 40 cm at XL\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eWaist\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eGathered seam under the bust, 64 cm at S to 80 cm at XL measured relaxed\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003e131 cm at S, 132 cm at M, 133 cm at L, 134 cm at XL\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eBust on the chart\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e92 cm at S, 96 cm at M, 102 cm at L, 108 cm at XL\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003eClosure\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #fafafa;\"\u003ePullover.
