The Dahlia Mandala Maxi

A bohemian-chic, floor-length maxi dress with an airy, resort-wear aesthetic. ​Form-fitting through the bodice and hips, flowing into a long, straight skirt with a dramatic, thigh-high side slit on the left. Features symmetrical side-waist cutouts that accentuate the waistline, transitioning into an open back or halter-style structure. A deep, plunging V-neckline with a halter-style finish. The upper bodice is crafted from an openwork, unlined crochet mesh stitch, creating a delicate, semi-sheer texture. The defining feature of the dress is a vertical row of large, circular, multi-colored crochet mandala medallions running down the front. The medallions incorporate earthy yet vibrant tones, including sage green, mustard yellow, dusty terracotta, and soft pink. ​The rest of the dress is constructed from a solid cream or off-white open-weave crochet pattern, balancing the colorful central motifs and allowing glimpses of skin or a lining underneath. The bottom hem features a scalloped, intricate lace-like crochet edge that pools gently at the feet.
