Product Insights

This open-back balconette maxi dress combines a sculpted neckline with adjustable straps for a customized fit, but requires a low-back or adhesive bra as it lacks built-in support; its lightweight, wrinkle-resistant crepe drapes without bulk yet may appear semi-sheer in bright light. Part of a nine-year campaign that raised over $168,000 for youth mental health, each purchase contributes $5 to charity, and at $39.95 it undercuts mass-market alternatives while offering Canadian design.

Verified claims

Bra options
Wear a low-back or adhesive bra, or nipple covers for minimal coverage; adjustable straps let a strapless or convertible bra work as a low-back style; larger busts may prefer a supportive adhesive or strapless bra.
Sheerness
The dress is lined in recycled polyester, but the light crepe fabric may still be semi-sheer in bright light; nude undergarments or a slip are a safe choice.
Drape
Lightweight crepe fabric drapes without clinging or bulk.
Wrinkle resistance
Wrinkle-resistant fabric travels well; creases release with steaming.
Pricing
Sale price $39.95 undercuts PLT's $47 and $70 sales.
Design
Balconette neckline, adjustable straps, and Canadian design set it apart from mass-market alternatives.
Charity
Each purchase includes a $5 donation to Tel-jeunes and Jack.org as part of the nine-year 'Emotions are ok' mental-health campaign, which has raised over $168,000.
Bust support
Requires adhesive or strapless bra — lacks internal cups or boning.
Adjustable straps
Adjustable straps allow fine-tuning fit, reducing gaping.
Neckline
Balconette neckline provides a sculpted bustline not found on budget maxi dresses
Small bust fit
One buyer with a small bust found the dress fell well but was difficult to adjust at the bust and a little loose through the bodice, while still liking it.
Value comparison
At $39.95 CAD, this dress undercuts comparable woven-crepe open-back maxi dresses at PrettyLittleThing Canada that are marked down to $47 and $70, and is a sharper markdown from its original $89 tag.

Elle tombe bien mais difficile à ajuster au buste, j’ai une petite poitrine et c’est un peu lousse mais je l’aime
