Description
An animal print midi dress that pulls on like a T-shirt
This animal print midi dress by Lakerta has a narrow pencil cut, long sleeves and a round neckline. There is no zip. The fabric, 90% viscose with 10% spandex, stretches enough to pull it over your head, and cords at the back let you draw in the waist.
The print is a mix of big cat patterns in beige, brown and black. On the model the dress ends at mid-calf, with a long slit on one side.

The piece: one print left
Lakerta made this dress in a bold animal print, the one under our button "Leopard", with large spots that turn into tiger-like stripes.
The maker describes an everyday dress with a simple pencil cut, for work and for informal occasions, in what it calls an airy viscose.
Who it's for
For you if you like a print to do the talking. With a pattern this strong, the rest of the outfit can be black and simple.
The cut is close. It follows the body from shoulder to calf, so it suits anyone who is comfortable in a fitted jersey dress. The maker lists three sizes, S to L.

Fabric and feel: viscose with 10% spandex
The composition is 90% viscose and 10% spandex. The maker calls the viscose airy and breathable. Ten percent spandex is a generous amount; it is what makes a dress without a zip possible in a cut this narrow.
In the photos the fabric is matte and smooth, and it lies close without shine. The supplier lists the weight at 450 grams.
Fit and silhouette: narrow, with a waist you set yourself
The maker gives a chest of 82 cm in S, 86 cm in M and 91 cm in L, measured on the dress, and a waist range of 72-80 cm, 78-86 cm and 84-90 cm. The range is there because of the lacing: pull the cords and the waist tightens.
The fabric stretches, so the chest figure is a starting point, not a limit. If you are between sizes and prefer some ease, take the larger one and use the cords.
Size chart (cm)
| Size | Chest | Waist |
|---|---|---|
| S | 82 | 72-80 |
| M | 86 | 78-86 |
| L | 91 | 84-90 |
Source: the maker's size table. It gives chest and a waist range but no length. The fabric has 10% spandex, so the chest figure is the dress at rest.
Styling: black boots or black pumps
The photos show two directions. Black pointed pumps make it an office or dinner dress. Black cowboy boots make it weekend wear, and the slit shows the shaft of the boot when you walk.
Add a black blazer or a long black coat and keep the bag plain. Gold-tone hoops pick up the warm tones of the print.
Occasions
The maker names everyday wear, work and informal meetings. Long sleeves and a calf-length hem make it a dress for autumn, winter and spring. It goes from desk to drinks without a change.
Care: follow the label
The maker's data has no washing instructions, so follow the label sewn into the dress.
Viscose jersey generally does well with a cool, gentle wash, inside out, and drying flat or on a wide hanger. Tie the cords loosely before washing so they do not tangle.
The wow detail: cords at the back
The dress has no zip and no buttons. All the shaping comes from two long cords at the back of the waist. Tie them tight for a defined waist or leave them loose for a straight line. Either way, the ends hang down and swing along the slit when you walk.
