Pale blue satin dresses with wrap fronts and florals

Our pale blue satin dress comes in a handful of cuts, and each one is made for warm weather. The fabric is a matte, silk-look satin that feels smooth on the skin and has a soft sheen in place of a hard shine. It isn’t natural silk, and we’d rather tell you so up front.

Wrap fronts you tie to your own waist

Half of this group wraps. That’s on purpose. A wrap closes with ties, so you pull it tighter or looser and decide where the waist sits, and the crossover leaves a V at the neck. Our short floral wrap has brief sleeves and likes flat sandals and a woven bag. The knee-length one carries a similar print a little lower, which helps when a mini feels too bare for a family lunch.

Both floral wraps are 98% polyester with 2% elastane, so the satin gives slightly as you move.

Then there’s the plain one. It has no print, long sleeves, a deep V and a mini hem. We’d choose that pale blue satin dress for a spring birthday or a prom, since the sleeves earn their keep once the evening cools down. Put your hair up with it. The neckline deserves to be seen.

Thin straps, flutter sleeves and a ruffled midi

Hot day by the sea? The mini on thin straps has an open back and a flounce sewn to the hem, with red flowers scattered over the blue. In town it goes with white sneakers and a straw hat. At night, throw a denim jacket over your shoulders.

Our square-neck mini is quieter. Its flutter sleeves only cover the top of the shoulder, so your arms move freely, and the neckline shows your collarbones. A thin gold chain sits well there.

Want more length? The midi has a round neck, short sleeves and ruffles along the hem that sway with every step. Its print is multicolored on a pale blue ground. We’d wear it on a date with pearl earrings and a pale bag.

Sizing a satin that’s sewn for summer

Satin has less give than a knit, so measure before you order. Hold your bust and waist numbers against the chart on each product page. We make each of these in XS to XL, which is roughly US 2 to 12. On the wraps the ties leave you some leeway. For the strappy mini and the square neck, your bust measurement decides.

All of them belong to our summer line, so they’re worth choosing ahead of the season. Next, look through the rest of our pale blue, or see satin wraps in other colors.
