The fabric drapes fluidly, so from the knee down the skirt falls in wide, soft waves and the train settles on the floor in loose folds that catch only a faint sheen. The slim bound edge of the neckline, the sleeves and the seam below the bust are all in that one black, with nothing like a belt or bow to break the line. The maker lists this fabric as a moderate stretch, and the main fabric is 90% polyester and 10% spandex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoose your size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in S, M, L and XL.

Length runs from 71.7 in \/ 182 cm in S to 75.2 in \/ 191 cm in XL, and your height changes where the hem lands. Inches appear first, then centimeters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long is the dress, and is there a train or a slit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn our photos the hem touches the floor at the front, and from around the knee the dress opens into a full mermaid skirt and a large train that spreads behind you and out to both sides, which makes it a dramatic choice for maternity portraits and party photos. A single slit sits in front of your right leg; it stays closed when you stand with your feet together and opens as you walk. For the full sweep of the train, see the front, side and back views and the train close-up in the material guide. Your height and shoes change how the hem falls, so check the length for your size in the size chart on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat do the neckline, sleeves and back look like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUp front, a deep crossover V-neckline has the panel from your right shoulder lying over the left one, with the V ending at about bust level and a slim bound edge in the same black all the way around; there is no tie or belt. Your shoulders stay covered, and each sleeve runs slim from shoulder to wrist, ending in a plain cuff. Behind you, the neckline rises into a higher, rounded shape and the back stays closed, with no cutouts or ties. You can see all of this in the upper-body view and the back view, and in the neckline close-up in the material guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does it fit over the bump, and what is the fabric?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRight below the bust a horizontal seam marks the high waist, and from there the dress follows the curve of your bump and stays close past the hips until vertical panels flare out into the mermaid skirt near the knee. Made of 90% polyester and 10% spandex, the fabric is smooth and matte and drapes fluidly. The maker lists this fabric as a moderate stretch. For the shape over the bump, look at the side view in the photos, and for the seam and the train, the close-ups 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 Octavia dress in Black: a new chapter shared with the people you love.
