Description
A mini blazer dress with mesh sleeves
From the front this is a short tailored jacket worn as a dress: lapels, two buttons, a fitted waist. Then you notice the sleeves. They are sheer mesh from shoulder to wrist, and so is the upper back.
Figl calls it a mini jacket dress. The maker's table gives a length of 84 cm in S and 86.5 cm in XL, mid-thigh on the model.

The piece: models 180863 and 180864 by Figl
Figl's description is one line: a mini jacket dress with long sleeves and a mesh back, buttoned, with a collar. The supplier files it under evening dresses.
There are two colours. The wholesaler's data calls the light one beige, while the photos show a clean white, so that is what our button says. The other is black.
A note on the composition. The maker lists 66% polyester, 33% viscose and 4% spandex, which adds up to a little more than 100. We print the figures as given and read them as approximate.
Who it's for
For you if you like the sharp look of a blazer and want something lighter for a party. The mesh takes the weight out of the tailoring.
It is short and it shows skin through the back, so it is a dress for an evening when you want to be seen.
Closer look: what the maker's data and the photos show
- Jacket-style front with a notched lapel collar (maker's data and photos)
- Two buttons side by side, double-breasted look (maker's data and photos)
- Long sleeves in sheer mesh (maker's data and photos)
- Upper back in sheer mesh (maker's data and photos)
- Fitted waist, straight short skirt (photos)
- Hem at mid-thigh on the model, 84 to 86.5 cm long (size table and photos)
The maker does not say whether the body of the dress is lined.
Fabric and feel: suiting cloth and mesh
The maker's composition is a polyester and viscose blend with a few percent spandex. In the photos the body looks like a smooth suiting fabric that holds the lapels flat and the skirt straight.
The mesh is a fine, even net. It is see-through. With the back open like this, your bra shows, so pick one you are happy to show or a backless style.
Fit and silhouette: tailored and short
Size L is listed with a chest of 96 cm, a waist of 82 cm, hips of 102 cm and a length of 86 cm. Each size adds four centimetres in width and very little in length.
The table does not say whether these are body or garment measurements. Compare them with a fitted blazer you own. If you are tall, note that XL is only two and a half centimetres longer than S.
Size chart (cm)
| Size | Length | Hips | Chest | Waist |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 84 | 94 | 88 | 74 |
| M | 85.5 | 98 | 92 | 78 |
| L | 86 | 102 | 96 | 82 |
| XL | 86.5 | 106 | 100 | 86 |
Source: the maker's size table, the same for both colours. It does not say whether these are garment or body measurements.
Styling: black pumps and little else
In the photos both colours are worn with black ankle-strap pumps and bare legs. The contrast works well with the white.
Sheer black tights suit the black version in winter. Keep your hair up or over one shoulder, or the mesh back disappears under it.
Occasions
The supplier lists it as an evening dress. Think of a birthday, a night out or New Year's Eve.
The white one is a nice option for a civil wedding or a hen party, if you are the bride.
Care: follow the label
The maker's data has no washing instructions, so follow the label sewn into the dress.
Mesh catches on jewellery and zips in general. A laundry bag protects it, and rings come off before you push your hands through the sleeves.
The wow detail: the back
Seen from the front it is a neat blazer dress. Turn around and the whole upper back is sheer, from the collar down to the waist seam, framed by the opaque skirt below. It is the surprise of the dress, and people see it when you walk away.
