Candice | Deep V-Neck Patchwork Floral Maxi Dress with Open Back

The dress that makes a beaded bag and leather sandals look like they were always part of the story.

The Candice is a sleeveless deep V-neck maxi dress with a smocked, button-front bodice and a dramatic patchwork skirt that pieces together mismatched floral prints, polka dots, and painterly panels in deep burgundy, dusty blue, and warm red — every block a different pattern, the whole thing completely deliberate. The back opens fully from neckline to waist and the A-line skirt sweeps floor-length in wide, airy volume.

Passed weekday, weekend, and evening — bohemian market to terrace dinner to a warm summer festival night.

• Deep V-neckline opens wide at the chest and runs to a smocked button-front bodice that gathers the fabric from bust to waist in horizontal rows and holds its shape through a full day without shifting.

• Open back drops from the neckline to the waist in a fully bare cut that makes a pendant necklace and bare skin the only accessories the dress needs.

• Patchwork skirt releases from the smocked waist in an A-line silhouette built from mismatched floral, polka dot, and painterly print panels that shift and move dramatically with every step.

• Bold retro patchwork placement combines deep burgundy, dusty blue, and warm red print blocks in a pattern that reads considered from across a room and works with flat sandals as naturally as with boots.
