Smocked Bodice Long Sleeve Midi Dress – Blue Loom

Made to fit you: comfortable movement and effortless style in sizes M–3x.

Meet the dress you'll want to wear on repeat. Made to move with you, this boutique midi dress combines a stretchy smocked bodice with a flowing skirt and effortless style. Featuring long sleeves, a V-neckline, a flirty ruffle hem, and (yes!) pockets, this style makes getting dressed easy whether you're heading to church, a shower, or a holiday gathering.

With its empire-waist silhouette, V-neckline, and midi length, this dress creates an easy, polished look without sacrificing comfort. In Blue Loom — a dark ditsy floral with soft blue and blush blooms — it's a moody, romantic print that pairs perfectly with boots and denim jackets.

Also available in Vintage Belle.
