EDITORS NOTE

Boreal Summer — a halter, an open back, a bow

Alva ties at the neck and again at the back, so you set the fit yourself. The bust is gathered, the seam sits high, and three soft tiers fall to the floor.

The crinkle weave is light. It is unlined and slightly sheer — made for sun.

SIZE & FIT

  • Fit: Close at the bust, then loose and full all the way down
  • Length: Floor length — about 46.5in shoulder to hem
  • Sizing: Take your usual size — the ties adjust the rest
Size chartSee what body each size fits, and how the dress is cut
Take your usual size. Only the bust needs to fit. The neck and back ties do the rest.

The fit

Easy. Close at the bust. Loose and full from there down.

The halter ties at the neck and the sash ties at the back, so you set both yourself.

Swipe to see every size

Bust and waist are your body. Measure yourself and read across. The bust is the only close part — everything below it is loose.
Between two sizes? Take the smaller one. The ties open the fit, and the skirt is full at every size.

Length

About 46in from the shoulder straight down to the hem.

Only 1.5in separates S from XXL. Your height sets where it falls.

How to measure

Measure over your underwear, tape snug but not pulled tight.

  1. A · Bust — Around the fullest part, tape level at the back.
  2. B · Waist — Around the narrowest point, above the navel.

MATERIALS

  • A light crinkle weave with a fine texture running through it
  • Unlined and slightly sheer — hold it up to the light and you will see through it
  • A deep V halter that ties behind the neck
  • Two softly gathered bust panels and a seam that sits high under the bust
  • An open back, bare from the nape to the waist
  • A wide sash that ties in a bow at the back
  • Three full tiers falling to the floor
  • No zip — it ties on

CARE

  • Hand wash cold, or machine wash cold on a gentle cycle in a bag
  • Untie the sash and the halter before washing
  • Do not bleach
  • Hang to dry out of direct sun
  • Cool iron on the reverse, or hang it in a steamy bathroom
  • The crinkle is meant to be there — do not press it flat
