Coral Coloured Bohemian Dress

Sizes: S, M, L

Opacity: 2

Sleeve: Fixed

Elasticity: The fabric has no elastic content, however the rayon component of the fabric will slowly stretch to your shape (similar to the way denim stretches to fit the wearer) if it is worn to fit tightly across the body. As this is a rayon dress, it will shrink when washed, before returning to the shape of the wearer after a short period of wear. Likewise, it is vital to understand that rayon loses its strength when wet, so it is important that this dress is dried hanging or flat, never tumble dried, as this could cause it to tear.

Bohemian fashion (Boho for short) has become a major trend in Australia as it is perfectly suited to Australian conditions. The focus on bohemian clothes and dresses in particular, is to provide a voluminous silhouette in a fabric that flows easily around the body without clinging to the body due to movement. Hence, fine cottons, chiffon and silk are popular fabric choices in this style. In this case, this dress is made of a beautiful rayon that feels soft against the skin.

As Boho style has an affinity with beach culture, it’s not particularly surprising that coral hues and pastel pinks and oranges are quintessential to this style. These colours are used in floral motifs and mixed patterns that support a rustic, vintage and ethic style.

For those whose modesty standards require the highest level of fabric opacity, we recommend wearing these dresses with either a slip dress underneath or with a pair of pants and top, just as you would with an abaya. Due to the focus on billowing, loose fabrics, there is lots of room in boho dresses to comfortably allow them to be worn over other clothing. But for those less concerned with opacity, the colour saturation in this dress ensures your undergarments are not on display when you wear it.

Boho dresses are feminine and freeing and we just can’t get enough of them here at Myriad Modest Fashion! We hope you enjoy this classic example of this beautiful style.
