This black maxi dress is a dupe of Doen’s coveted “Sol” for a fraction of the cost the designer brand sells theirs for. A “medium” according to the only tag on the dress, P2P is 13 inches flat whereas the empire waist is 12, but the ruching means inches of stretch is to be had. I bought this new from Amazon I think and only wore it a couple of times. It’s very comfortable but too low cut for me at this point in my life. It has a lining, feels like 100% cotton but I don’t have proof that it is. The ribbon in front ties into a bow for purely aesthetic purposes only. The pattern of the weave is subtle little circles. This dress can be dressed up or down. Throw it over your swimsuit and head for the beach or wear it out for dinner and a night of dancing under the stars or just wear it while lounging in the garden with a good book or on the couch. It’s baby bump and nursing friendly! Like new!
