Tiered boho floral maxi with pockets in chocolate brown
$54.99
Check price & buyThree fall colourways carry this one: navy blue, burnt orange and chocolate brown, all printed with a large floral. The waist is smocked and sits high under the bust, the skirt below is tiered down to the ankle, and the sleeves are long and puffed. Two side pockets are cut into the seams. The fabric is described only as lightweight and breathable, and the listing is explicit that there is no lining, which is worth factoring in for a dress aimed at autumn events.

Reading the tiered boho floral maxi with pockets
one
Smocked waist does the sizing
Instead of a zip or a tie, the waist is smocked: elastic shirring that stretches to the body and then holds. It fixes the empire line under the bust and lets the tiers below hang free, which is how the dress handles a range of shapes without a fitted bodice.
two
Pockets in the side seams
Two side pockets are built into the skirt. On a tiered maxi they disappear into the gathering, so they stay usable without breaking the line, and they remove the need to hold anything at a long event.
three
No lining, stated plainly
The listing notes there are no liners. With a lightweight fabric that puts the burden on an underlayer in cold weather and on the print to carry the opacity, so it is a point to check against the venue before an October booking.
Three autumn colourways, one smocked waist, and pockets deep enough to be the reason to pick it.
Same model, other colours
Fit, honestly
Ankle length with a high smocked waist, long puff sleeves and no fastenings to manage. The smocking stretches across the bust and waist; everything from the empire seam down hangs loose and tiered.
- V neck, long puff sleeves, ankle length.
- Smocked empire waist, no closures.
- Two side pockets; shipped unlined.
