Product Insights
This rare Smythe non-blazer dress carries the brand's tailoring cachet, fitting true to size like their blazers, with side pleats that add subtle hip volume for a gentle flare while remaining fitted. Care requires dry cleaning or cold hand wash.
Verified claims
- Collectibility
- Smythe is primarily known for blazers, so this non-blazer dress is a distinctive way to get the brand's tailoring cachet.
- Sizing
- Fits true to size, consistent with Smythe's blazer sizing; if between sizes, consider sizing down because the stretch viscose jersey has some give.
- Side pleat silhouette
- Side pleats add subtle hip volume for a gentle flare while the dress stays fitted, rather than lying flat against the body.
- Care
- Professional cleaning is recommended; dry clean or hand wash in cold water, do not bleach, iron low, avoid tumble drying, and hang to dry.
