Zuzanna | Empire Waist Tiered Maxi Dress

Tier upon tier of ruffles makes a maxi dress feel romantic.

Long dresses can look heavy, but stacked tiers break up the length and let the skirt float as you move. Zuzanna gathers each tier under an empire waist and finishes the shoulders with soft butterfly sleeves edged in ruffles.

Empire waist. The seam sits just below the bust, so the skirt falls freely past the tummy and hips instead of resting on them. Comfortable through a long dinner and a slow dessert.

Tiered ruffled skirt. Each layer flares a little more than the one above, which builds beautiful volume toward the hem. It swirls every time you turn around.

Butterfly sleeves. Ruffle-edged sleeves rest lightly on the upper arm and cover it softly without any tightness at all. Pretty, and practical when you reach across a table.

Deep V-neckline. The V lengthens the neck and balances the fullness of the skirt below, so the whole dress looks proportioned. A flattering line in every single photo.

Now and then a dress turns an ordinary evening into something you remember, simply because of how it moves. Picture it swaying as you walk across the garden or the dance floor.
