This semi-fitted sleeveless dress unites a touch of evening-wear formality with an all-purpose fit and feel. Mesh underlay at armholes and neck provides coverage but allows the natural glow of skin to show through. The bodice is fitted, with light gathers at the bust. A subtle empire cut allows fabric to fall away from the high waist. Seven panels extend from the waist, sitting close to the body without pulling: one wide panel in CF with two narrower side panels creates a long flat shape from waist to hem. A ruched flounce at the hem adds both length and lightness of movement.
