Product Information
Full details
The Joules Esme Dress is designed for the modern adult woman seeking an effortless, stylish look for warm-weather outings. Its key benefit lies in the combination of a smocked, flexible bodice and an airy, tiered skirt that ensures comfort without sacrificing a flattering silhouette. While the dress offers versatility for holidays and casual days, users should note that the maxi-length requires careful styling to ensure the hem remains clean during outdoor activities.

FAQs
Does the dress have pockets?
The current design of the Joules Esme Dress focuses on the silhouette of the smocked bodice and tiered skirt; it does not feature pockets.
Is the fabric see-through?
The dress is designed with high-quality materials intended for everyday wear, providing adequate coverage for standard summer outings.
Can this dress be worn in cooler weather?
While intended for sun-drenched holidays, you can extend its wear into cooler months by layering it with thermal leggings and a chunky knit sweater or jacket.
How do I determine my size?
The smocked bodice is very forgiving. If you are between sizes, you may prefer to select the smaller size for a more fitted look, or your standard size for a relaxed, airy fit.
Is the V-neckline too deep?
The V-neckline is designed to be flattering and feminine without being overly plunging, suitable for a variety of occasions.
Troubleshooting
Shirring feels tight after washing
Gently stretch the bodice width-wise while the garment is slightly damp to help the fabric return to its original shape.
Wrinkling in the tiered skirt
Use a light steam iron on a low setting, keeping distance from the smocked area to avoid heat damage to the elastic threads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Esme dress arrives ready to wear. Because the fabric is designed for comfort and movement, it is recommended to follow these care steps to ensure longevity:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water to prevent damage to the shirring.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible; avoid high heat in the dryer as it may cause the elastic in the smocked bodice to lose elasticity over time.
- Storage: Store the dress hanging or loosely folded; avoid pulling on the smocked sections to prevent fabric distortion.
- Compatibility: This dress pairs easily with casual leather sandals, white sneakers, or espadrilles for a classic summer look.
