Honey Buzzard Dress - Dark Wash
Honey Buzzard is a brand new cut for Birds this season - a multi-panelled dress that hugs the upper body beautifully, and gently flares out over the hips. It's made of 100% cotton denim, and the panels are all topstitched at 1/4".
Honey Buzzard has pockets hidden in the seams of the front skirt, and it closes with an invisible zipper down the back. This dress can be washed on a cold delicate cycle and hung to dry. Please be aware that in new indigo denim, such as this, some dye can transfer before the first couple of washes.
Hayley is 5'7" and wears our size 6 in these pictures, Marie is 5'1" and wears our size 16, and Hilary is 5'7" and wears our size 12. Honey Buzzard measures 42.5"(2) to 45.5"(20) from shoulder to hem - you can see our size chart here.
Special Sizing Note: Due to this being a new style, and to the size grader being a human 😂, we had a little 'blib' with the size grading on this first round, and this dress does fit a bit on the larger side starting at about size 14 and up. There are finished dress measurements below, so you can cross check those with your body measurements to be sure, but just be aware that if you normally take a Birds size 14 or better, you might need to size down a full size. Sizes 2-12 fit more in the range of our regular size chart.
