Description
A lace long sleeve bodycon mini dress with a twist
This dress is two ideas in one. On top: floral lace from a high round neck down to the wrists, sheer enough to see through. Below: a draped layer that wraps the hips and twists into a knot at the front.
It is 100% polyester, slightly stretchy and not lined. You can choose from six colours in sizes XS to L.

The piece: a lace dress by Clover
The dress is sold under the label Clover. Our supplier lists three features, lace, twisted and sheer, and states that the body is not lined. The fabric is 100% polyester with a slight stretch. Origin is given as imported, with no country.
In the photos the lace runs under the skirt layer as well: it shows in the opening below the twist at the front. At the back the skirt is plain and opaque, and a zip runs down the centre of the back.
Who it's for
For you if you want a going-out dress that covers the arms and the neckline and still shows skin. That is the trade this dress makes: long sleeves and a high neck, in a fabric that hides very little.
Be clear about the sheer part before you order. The lace top is see-through and unlined, so what you wear underneath is part of the outfit.

Fabric and feel: polyester lace, no lining
Everything is polyester: the lace and the smooth layer over the hips. The supplier calls the dress slightly stretchy, which a close fit needs. There is no lining, so the lace lies directly on the skin.
In the close-up the lace has a flower motif on an open net ground. The draped layer looks like a smooth, matte jersey in the pictures; the supplier does not name the knit.
Fit and silhouette: close and short
Bodycon means it follows the body. The supplier gives bust, waist and hip as ranges per size: for M that is a bust of 84.1 to 91.9 cm, a waist of 69.1 to 74.9 cm and a hip of 86.1 to 94 cm. The length is 83.1 cm in M and the sleeve 64 cm. All figures are converted from inches and rounded to one decimal.
On the models the hem sits at mid-thigh. If your measurements fall across two sizes, let the hip decide: the draped layer has the least room to give.

Styling: decide what shows
Start with the layer underneath. A bralette or bodysuit in the colour of the dress makes the lace look like one piece. A skin-tone one makes the lace pattern stand out. In the photos a dark bra is worn under the black.
Heels lengthen the leg under a mini. In colder months, opaque tights and a long coat make it wearable outdoors.
Occasions
A night out, a birthday, a date, New Year's Eve. This is an evening dress. It is too sheer for most offices and most family lunches.
Care: machine wash cold
The supplier's instructions: machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Lace snags on hooks and zips, so close the zip and use a laundry bag. Check the sewn-in label as well.
The wow detail: the knot at the hip
The twist does the styling for you. It pulls the smooth fabric into folds that fan out across the hips, and it leaves a small window of lace below. A plain lace tube would be one texture from top to bottom. Here matte and sheer take turns.
