Aristaea Floral Maxi Dress

Pack this one for the trip and let it do the heavy lifting. It moves from the sand to the table to the evening with no change of clothes in between. This is for the woman who wants vacation to feel like vacation, who would rather spend the day in it than spend the morning deciding what to wear.

The fabric is a soft, lightweight blend that breathes in the heat and floats as you move. It falls full length in a relaxed, flowing shape, with a high waist that gives the long line a hint of structure. Long sleeves, a round neck, and a pullover cut with nothing to fasten. The floral print is soft and feminine, the kind that holds up under bright sun.

Throw it on over a swimsuit, for a beach lunch, or out on a warm holiday evening. Flat sandals keep it relaxed, a wedge takes it into the night.

Sized 2X to 6X, fitting US 18 to 36.
