Is the fabric see-through in lighter colors?
No. The linen-look polyester is woven tightly enough to stay opaque in all four colors, including the olive green and denim blue.
Are the pockets sewn into the dress or just decorative?
They're real, sewn-in side pockets deep enough for a full-size phone, keys, or sunglasses โ not a small decorative slit.
Does the ruffle hem add bulk at the bottom?
The ruffle is soft and lightly gathered, so it adds gentle movement without making the hem look bulky or stiff.
Can I machine wash this dress?
Yes. Cool machine wash with similar colors, then hang dry to keep the ruffle and shape looking their best.
