Description
Etoile is the perfect little summer dress, with a simple yet sophisticated cut recently updated for an even more flattering silhouette. It defines the figure with breast darts and waist darts at the front and back, and comes with 3 sleeve options: simple short sleeves (view A), slightly puffed short sleeves tied with a narrow ribbon (view B), or with a wide ribbon (view C). Depending on your body shape, you can choose to reduce or eliminate the waist darts. Bust adjustments are also very easy to perform thanks to the classic bust dart. You can also very easily modify the length to make it into a midi dress using the lengthen/shorten line.
