about this style

How does the Joanie Maxi Dress fit, and what size should I order?
The Joanie Maxi Dress fits true to size, with a smocked elastic back waist that gently adjusts to your frame and adds definition without requiring a precise fit through the midsection. Our model is 5'9" and wears a size XS; the dress measures 58" in length based on a size S. If you are between sizes, order down, as the smocked waist has natural give.
What is the fabric composition, and how should I care for this dress?
The Joanie Maxi Dress is made from 100% polyester, which gives it a lightweight, fluid drape that holds its shape through warm-weather wear. Dry clean or hand wash in cold water; avoid machine washing, which can distort the tiered hem structure and the delicate flutter sleeves. Lay flat or hang to dry after hand washing.
What occasions can I wear the Joanie Maxi Dress to, and how can I style it?
The Joanie Maxi Dress is at home at a garden party, summer wedding, upscale brunch, or gallery opening. For evening occasions, style it with strappy heeled sandals, a delicate pendant necklace, and a small clutch. For a daytime or destination-travel look, swap to flat leather sandals and a woven tote.
Is the Joanie Maxi Dress lined, and what should I wear underneath it?
The Joanie Maxi Dress is constructed from 100% polyester with a smocked elastic back panel; it does not include a built-in lining. The fabric has moderate opacity in black, but a seamless nude slip or shorts liner underneath is recommended for comfort and coverage, especially in bright light. A strapless or convertible bra works well given the flutter sleeve and v-neckline.
What makes the Joanie Maxi Dress special?
The Joanie Maxi Dress combines three flattering design moves in a single silhouette: a smocked elastic back waist that cinches and adjusts without a zipper, a v-neckline that elongates, and a tiered hem that creates movement with every step. The flutter sleeves add a romantic, bohemian finish that distinguishes the dress from a standard maxi. It is a year-round Ramy Brook icon that has remained a best seller across multiple seasons.
