Combine your choice of the layers to create a single, double or triple layer skirt. Cap, elbow or full length sleeves mean this dress can work in all seasons. The lower back closes with an elegant invisible zip, while the upper back features 3 different button options: elastic button loop tape with delicate buttons, handmade fabric button loops with 1/2” buttons, or buttonholes with larger feature buttons.
