Apricot ground, scattered floral, short sleeves, and a ruffle that finishes the hem at the knee. The empire seam sits high and the skirt flares out from there. Pockets are built into the side seams, which is less common at this hem length than it should be. Simplee's own note is that the fabric stays opaque, and that is the detail deciding whether a pale summer dress gets worn twice or once.

What matters on this one

Start here

The ruffle does the work at the hem

Knee-length skirts can finish abruptly. The added ruffle gives the hem a little weight and movement, so it swings rather than stopping flat against the leg. It is the one decorative element on an otherwise plain cut, and it is placed where it shows.

Opaque in a pale colour

Apricot is exactly the shade that goes translucent in strong sun when the cloth is too thin. Simplee describes this one as lightweight without being see-through, which is the claim that matters on a dress aimed at garden parties and outdoor services.

Pockets at knee length

The side pockets sit where the skirt is already full, so they vanish into the flare instead of adding bulk at the hip. Useful on a dress being pitched for picnics and daytime weddings in the same breath.

Fit, honestly

Runs S to XL with published sizing: S is US 4-6, M is 8-10, L is 12-14, XL is 16-18, stated as true to size. No zip and no buttons; the high empire seam and the flare do the shaping. Machine wash cold, hang to dry, low iron.
