A swirl of surprise and joy, the Francis is signature printed modal charm with a ruffle trim neckline, gathered bodice, pockets and ties that flatter for forever.
- 100% Modal - Pocket 100% Cotton
- Side seam pockets

- Did you know? Modal is a fabric with flattering drape and superb color saturation; it is derived from birch trees, harvested from a sustainable forest! It is created through a spinning process, much like rayon. Modal needs a fraction of the water of other fabrics in its processing - making it a sustainable and environmentally friendly fabric.
- Machine wash in cold water on gentle cycle. Hang to dry.

Lightweight and Cute
I agree with another reviewer that the sleeves are a bit big (balloon-y), but they somehow looks okay on me. It is also true that this dress is quite brown, but I'd say it's a nice reddish brown and still quite pretty. The print and color are very "fall." The blue petals are a nice accent. This dress is very light. I washed it on cold/delicate and hung it to dry. The fabric felt a bit rough after washing, so I ironed the skirt portion only and left the bodice and sleeves alone as they are gathered and would be hard to iron! The ironing made the skirt area softer and more flow-y. This dress is a bit see-through (I personally don't mind but others who are more modest should beware). It's nice for warm/hot fall days which we do have in CA. I am long waisted, so the elastic on the waist hits a tad too high for me (cutting into my bust just a bit), but it's wearable. I like that it still has button ties even though it's one of the elastic waist dresses (please keep putting button ties on most dresses, AC!). Overall this dress is nice...might want to size up if you're long waisted or large busted.

Color and sizing off
This is a beautiful dress, but the color is more brown than red shown online and sleeves are much larger than shown in the picture.
