Mini flowy dress styles with ruffles and wrap ties

A mini flowy dress moves before you do, thanks to a ruffled hem, a wrap that ties at the waist or a flounce that bounces on the stairs. We make them in light summer prints and in warm velvet, angora and lurex for the colder months. The occasion decides which one you’ll want, and below we sort them that way.

Picnics, vacations and lazy Sundays in summer prints

Our summer group is mostly wraps and ruffles in florals and polka dots. For a picnic on the grass, a soft-fabric wrap with roses and a ruffled hem is the easy pick, since that knit barely creases and doesn’t need an iron after a long drive. Cotton muslin is for the hottest days. You’ll barely feel it at noon.

A summer birthday or a date asks for a little shine. Our silky satin wraps in emerald, lilac, red, light blue and white tie at the waist, and the ties let you set how snug the bodice sits and how deep the V goes. You’ll stand out in lilac, a shade few people pick for a party.

The summer prints come back with the warm season, so it’s worth choosing a color now and planning the fitting for spring.

Office days and winter nights out

Does flowy work at a desk? It can. Our black and burgundy jersey minis have a fitted bodice and two tiers of flounces, and the hem can be set at 80, 88 or 92 to 94 centimeters, so you choose by height and heel. The shortest pairs best with over-the-knee boots. The longest is the one we’d wear to work.

For a holiday party, look at the velvet wraps in black, burgundy, chocolate, blue and marsala, or the lurex ones that catch the light by themselves. Velvet with long sleeves keeps you warm in a short hem. On some of them the drape at the waist softens the tummy line.

A winter date is a good reason for angora. The beige angora mini with flounces at the shoulders and hem fits close to the body and feels cozy on a frosty walk. Choose a straight coat over it, so the shoulder ruffles don’t get crushed under bulky sleeves or a puffy collar.
