Product Insights
Fine Crochet Slit Dress by Simons at 19.99 CAD is a machine-knit 100% polyester fine stretch openwork cover-up with no elastane, an accessible entry to the 200-415 CAD handmade crochet bracket and a runway-backed crocheted-strap silhouette rather than a generic beach basic; its core promise is a bohemian crochet texture layer worn over a swimsuit from beach through lunch, belted or open, with a relaxed straight-column cover-up cut loose through waist and hips, adjustable thin straps, open knit and side slits for airy heat wear, true-to-size fit, soft smooth hand, stretch from loop geometry that drapes rather than grips, near-zero water take-up, light non-clinging and non-stiffening wet behavior, sand that shakes and rinses clear, chlorine and saltwater resistance, and recovery past 100 washes without elastane where spandex slackens by 50-80; the main tradeoff is that the openwork is semi-sheer and needs a swimsuit or undergarments, sunscreen oil bonds to the polyester as pale smudges that a routine cold wash will not lift and may need dish soap or pretreatment, strain concentrates at the thin strap anchors as the likeliest failure point, construction is machine-knit rather than the stiff hand of true crochet, Off White is offered only in Large, and the item is out of stock.
Verified claims
- Sheerness
- The openwork crochet is semi-sheer and requires a swimsuit or undergarments underneath for coverage.
- Wet wear
- The polyester knit takes on almost no water, staying light and drapey when wet.
- Sand
- Open loops catch some sand, but a shake and a rinse clears it without a wash.
- Sunscreen staining
- Sunscreen oil can cling to the polyester as pale marks, so pretreat spots before washing.
- Fit flexibility
- Elastane-free stretch from loop geometry, so it drapes rather than grips.
- Hand feel
- The fine openwork knit is soft and smooth on skin rather than scratchy.
- Shape retention
- Recovery holds past 100 washes without elastane, where spandex slackens by 50-80.
- Strap durability
- Strain concentrates at the thin strap anchors, the likeliest failure point.
- Care
- Sunscreen oil binds to the polyester and survives a cold wash; dish soap lifts it.
- Sizing
- Runs true to size.
- Style
- Trend-literate openwork to wear as a texture layer, belted or over linen.
- Value
- The bohemian crochet look at $19.99, where handmade sets run $200 to $415.
- Size availability
- Off White comes only in Large while Black carries X-Small through Large.
- Chlorine resistance
- Chlorine and saltwater leave the spandex-free polyester knit untouched.
- Wet behavior
- Wet, the knit stays light and does not stiffen or cling.
- Material
- 100% polyester fine stretch knit with no elastane.
- Breathability
- Open knit, thin straps and side slits keep the dress airy over a swimsuit in heat.
- Styling
- A texture layer over a swimsuit for beach through lunch, not the whole outfit.
- Design heritage
- A crochet silhouette with runway backing and copyright-battle heritage.
- Straps
- Adjustable thin straps tune the fit, though the anchor joins are the likeliest wear point.
- Silhouette
- Relaxed cover-up cut — loose through the waist and hips, hanging as a straight column.
- Price positioning
- At $19.99 CAD, this is the accessible entry to the $200-$415 handmade crochet bracket.
- Design lineage
- A crocheted-strap silhouette shown by Valentino, Gucci and Chloé, not a generic beach basic.
- Layering
- Over a swimsuit, belted or worn open, it bridges beach to lunch.
- Variant pricing
- Every size and colourway lists at the same 19.99 CAD, with no Large or Off White upcharge.
- Construction
- Machine-knit stretch openwork fine knit, not the stiff hand of true crochet
- Sunscreen stains
- Sunscreen oil bonds to the knit as pale smudges a routine wash will not lift

Compared within this brand.
| Fine Crochet Slit Dress: Choose this if you want a sheer open-knit crochet layer to wear over swimwear: it is a sleeveless, midi-length column dress in a stretch fine knit (100% polyester) with thin adjustable straps, a scoop neckline with a low scooped back, and side slits extending to above the knee. Note that the knit is highly sheer and see-through, so it works as a cover-up over an underlayer rather than as a standalone dress. It comes in black and off white, listed in sizes X-Small through Large.[1,2,3,4] | Devoré Pattern 3/4-Sleeve Tunic: Choose this if you want a lightweight, flowy 100% cotton layer for the beach or poolside — its quick-drying fabric and loose silhouette make it effortless over swimwear, and the white devoré floral pattern with fluorescent accents is reported to draw compliments with jeans or leggings. Note that the fit runs large: the small measures 27 inches across under the arms (closer to a standard large), so most buyers size down unless they want an oversized look. Also be aware the sleeves, advertised as 3/4-length, sometimes arrive full-length, and reviewers report the devoré fabric is prone to pulling and can look distressed after minimal wear.[5] | Parasol Stripe Chambray Maxi Dress: Choose this if you want a Simons-exclusive, sleeveless beach maxi in 100% organic cotton with a relaxed, loose A-line silhouette that falls to the ankles, a smocked square neckline, thin tie shoulder straps, and vertical two-tone pink stripes with a contrasting horizontal striped hem band. It suits shoppers who like breathable, lightweight chambray-style texture, gathered bodice volume, and convenient side slit pockets. Note the fabric shows subtle slub and slight sheerness in the lighter stripe areas, and it is offered in pink in small, medium, and large.[6,7,8,9] |
