Thornbill Dress - Black

Thornbill is a perfectly simple, strappy summer dress, made of soft and breathable rayon/linen noil. This cut has a lovely fit and flare shape, but the fabric has lots of give, so it’s very comfortable to wear! It has a curved, fold-over flap at the bust as well as pockets in the skirt.

The fabric is 75% rayon and 25% linen, and it closes with an invisible zipper at the back. Thornbill can be hand or machine washed  on a cold, delicate cycle and hung to dry. It is also available in Red, Golden Moss and Lilac!

Kristina is 5'3" and wears our size 16. Thornbill measures 44"(2) to 46.5"(20) from shoulder to hem - you can see our size chart here. This fabric doesn't have stretch, but it does have a nice amount of 'give'.
