Product Insights
The Twik Boat Collar Knit Dress offers a fitted waist that runs true to size, with a recommendation to size up if between sizes. Its LENZING™ ECOVERO™ knit fabric stretches easily and snaps back, providing a soft, fluid drape that feels cool on warm days and wicks moisture. The black colorway maintains deep, wash-fast saturation, while ecru presents a warm ivory with beige undertones. To preserve its shape, hand wash or gentle cycle, flat dry, and store folded; steam can recover any shrinkage. With EU Ecolabel certification and 50% lower water and carbon impact, this dress balances tailored comfort with sustainable materials.
