Check price & buyThe neckline moves. Pulled down it sits off the shoulder; pulled up it becomes a short-sleeve dress with ordinary coverage, which is the main reason to pick this one over a fixed neckline. Underneath that sits a high waist and a tiered chiffon skirt in a floral print, offered on a black ground with pink or in lake blue. Review numbers are modest, so it is better described as building a following than as established.

Smocking across the top lets the bodice sit either on the shoulders or below them. Dropped, it reads as evening wear; pulled up, the same panel becomes short sleeves and a plain neckline suited to a ceremony or a weekday lunch.
The skirt is cut in layers from a raised seam, so volume starts above the natural waistline and the chiffon falls free from there. Soft ruffles at the tier joins give the hem some weight and keep the lightest fabric from clinging.
Two colourways with different jobs: the black ground with pink florals holds up at evening events, while lake blue is the lighter daytime choice. Both are printed on the same thin chiffon, so the difference is the ground, not the weight.
Fit is handled by smocking at the top and a high waist seam; below that the tiered chiffon hangs loose. Worn off the shoulder, the elastic panel is what holds the dress up, and pulled onto the shoulders it becomes a short-sleeve neckline. The maker quotes no size range in its notes.
