Malibu Dress

This dress hinges on the contrast between a high-neck, ribbed jersey bodice and a voluminous, drop-waist crepe skirt. The bodice hugs the torso with a racerback-adjacent cut, while the skirt introduces a structured, airy tension that breaks up the lean lines of the top. It is a study in texture, using the weight of the jersey to anchor the floaty skirt, finished with hidden side-seam pockets for a pragmatic touch.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is constructed primarily from petroleum-based synthetic fibers, including polyester, nylon, and spandex/elastane. These materials lack natural breathability and carry a higher risk of microplastic shedding and chemical transfer during periods of perspiration.
