Elastic smocking is worked across the whole bodice, front and back, in close, even rows that hold it near while easing with your shape, and below the empire waist the skirt falls gathered and full into an A-line that ends in a deep ruffle. The same soft ruffle trims each shoulder and opens out from the narrow elastic band at each wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoose your size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in S, M, L, XL and XXL. The size chart on this page lists garment measurements for bust, waist, hip, length and sleeve length, with inches first, then centimeters. Garment measurements are not body measurements. The bodice is fully smocked, and the bust and waist in the chart read much smaller than body measurements, so compare them with a smocked-bodice dress that fits you well rather than with your own measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eYour questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I choose my size?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompare the garment measurements in the size chart on this page with a smocked-bodice dress that fits you well rather than with your own body measurements: the bodice is fully smocked, and the bust and waist in the chart read much smaller than body measurements. It lists bust, waist, hip, length and sleeve length. Length runs from 47.2 in \/ 120 cm in S to 52 in \/ 132 cm in XXL, and your height changes where the hem lands. Inches appear first, then centimeters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long is this dress, and where does the ruffle start?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a midi: the hem falls to the lower calf and stops above the ankle. A deep gathered ruffle begins around the upper calf and finishes the full A-line skirt, opening out at the hem, as the studio front, side and back views and the hem close-up in the material guide show. Your height changes where the hem lands, so check the length for your size in the size chart on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the neckline, sleeves and back like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe neckline runs straight across front and back to form a square, its top edge simply the top of the smocking, and a small gathered ruffle sits at each shoulder where it meets the sleeve. The long lantern sleeves stay full down the arm and are gathered at the wrist by a narrow elastic band that opens into a ruffle. The back repeats the square neckline and the smocking, and the dress pulls on, with no zipper or buttons. The neckline close-up and the studio back view in the photos show all of this, and the material guide has a close-up of the cuff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does the smocked bodice fit, and how should I read the size chart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the square neckline to just under the bust, the bodice is smocked front and back in fine elastic rows that hold it close and give with your shape, and from that empire waist the skirt is gathered loose and full, with room for your bump and no belt or tie. The bust and waist in the size chart read much smaller than your own measurements, so compare them with a smocked-bodice dress that fits you well rather than with your body. For a closer look, see the three-quarter view by the leather armchair in the photos and the smocked bodice close-up in the material guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does Evening Embrace mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvening Embrace is our color story for the Abigail dress in Black: a new chapter shared with the people you love.
