Cartagena Maxi Dress

This caramel-toned column dress is densely saturated in sequins, arranged in diagonal lines that create a subtle sense of movement against the body’s silhouette. The strapless bodice is secured by a non-slip silicone lining, ensuring a clean, flush fit against the chest. It leans into a high-octane evening aesthetic, trading volume for a streamlined, 90s-inspired column shape.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: Composed primarily of polyester with a polyester-spandex lining, this garment is a petroleum-based plastic construction. The low breathability of these synthetic fibers, combined with the density of the sequin application, creates a significant barrier to skin ventilation, increasing heat retention during wear.
