about this style

How does this dress fit, and what size should I order?
The Nicky fits true to size thanks to its smocked elastic back waist, which provides a naturally adjustable, comfortable fit across the waist and hips. The mini silhouette falls at approximately 33.5 inches on a size S, hitting above the knee for a flirty, feminine proportion. If you are between sizes, size down to let the smocked waist do the work of creating a defined shape.
What is the fabric composition, and how should I care for this dress?
The Nicky is crafted from a stretch cotton poplin blend of 97% Cotton and 3% Spandex, giving it a crisp, structured hand with just enough give for all-day comfort. The lining is 100% Cotton, keeping the dress breathable in warm weather. To preserve the fabric's fresh finish, dry clean or hand wash in cool water and lay flat to dry rather than machine washing.
What occasions is the Nicky dress right for, and how can I style it from day to evening?
The Nicky is a natural fit for garden parties, Sunday brunches on sun-drenched patios, casual workdays, and weekend daytime events where a polished but relaxed look is the goal. Its crisp white cotton poplin and charming puff sleeves also make it a standout choice for bridal showers or rehearsal dinners that call for an elegant white dress. Style it with sandals and a woven tote for a breezy daytime look, then swap in block-heeled mules and gold jewelry to carry it effortlessly into an evening dinner or rooftop gathering.
Is this dress lined, and what should I wear underneath it?
The Nicky is fully lined in 100% Cotton, so it is completely opaque and comfortable to wear on its own without any additional layering underneath. The smocked elastic back waist and bra-friendly construction mean a standard underwire or wireless bra works perfectly with this style. No shapewear or special undergarments are needed.
What makes the Nicky dress special?
The Nicky stands apart through the combination of its short puff sleeves, smocked elastic back waist with a self-tie detail, and deep pockets, all executed in a crisp stretch cotton poplin that feels refined without being precious. It is one of those rare pieces that reads equally polished at a bridal shower or an elegant white dress brunch as it does on a casual workday, making it a true wardrobe workhorse for the warm months. The self-tie at the back waist adds a personal, considered flourish that elevates the silhouette beyond a standard cotton mini.
