The Froncé Réglable Chambermaid Dress is ESS classic. Oversized in fit and silhouette, this sleeveless dress features a tie at the waist and an adjustable gathered sleeve. With a papery cotton fabric, when utilised by the wearer, this gives an easy and breathable form to the garment, which can be used to freely manipulate the form of the garment in a variety of interesting ways. The wearer may choose to tie the dress back, experimenting with wrapping the tie around the waist, or in looping it through the bottom hem and back up into the armhole, creating an exaggerated ballooning effect in doing so. Additionally, this dress features asymmetrical flap pockets at the front of the body for ease of everyday wear.
