The shoulders are lightly structured, the long sleeves set in. At the waist, a fine matching belt with a rectangular buckle, held by buttoned loops, defines the silhouette. A short peplum softens the transition over the hips, with two buttoned pocket flaps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBelow, the skirt is fully pleated with fine pressed pleats.

Matte crêpe fabric, opaque, unlined. Permanent pressed pleats on the skirt.

No tumble dryer: heat can relax the pleats. Dry on a hanger, with the skirt hanging freely; the pleats fall back into place on their own. Ironing is generally unnecessary; if needed, a gentle iron on the reverse, without dwelling on the pleats. No bleach; dry cleaning is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements taken flat on a sample, tolerance of 1 to 2 cm. S: bust 96 cm, shoulders 39.5 cm, sleeve 62 cm, total length 128 cm. M: bust 100 cm, shoulders 40.5 cm, sleeve 63 cm, total length 129 cm. L: bust 106 cm, shoulders 41.5 cm, sleeve 64 cm, total length 130 cm. XL: bust 112 cm, shoulders 42.5 cm, sleeve 65 cm, total length 131 cm. The bodice is fitted: if you are between two sizes or have a fuller bust, take the size up — the belt will take up the ease at the waist. As the skirt is sunray pleated, it stays full in every size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolyester — isn't it hot, and doesn't it breathe badly?\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a matte crêpe, not a fine satin: it is opaque, holds its shape and wears well from autumn to spring. On heated office days, a long crêpe sleeve stays comfortable. In high summer it will be too covering, and we say so.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the skirt's pleats flatten in the wash?\u003c\/strong\u003e The pleats are heat pressed and permanent. They hold as long as you avoid the tumble dryer and too hot an iron. Wash at 30 °C, dry on a hanger letting the skirt hang: it takes its shape back by itself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the midi length make me look shorter if I am petite?\u003c\/strong\u003e The total length is 128 cm in S, measured from the shoulder. As the waist is marked high by the belt, the leg looks longer. With a low-heeled ankle boot, the balance is good even under 1.65 m.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SQOCH","offers":[{"title":"S \/ black","offer_id":55256822841673,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ black","offer_id":55256822874441,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ black","offer_id":55256822907209,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL \/ black","offer_id":55256822939977,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/0782\/2921\/files\/robe-longue-effet-deux-pieces-a-jupe-plissee-01.jpg?v=1788599394","url":"https:\/\/sqoch.fr\/en\/products\/robe-midi-effet-deux-pieces-jupe-plissee","provider":"SQOCH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
