THE PERFECT DRESS FOR YOUR NEXT OUTDOOR EVENT
This floor-length maxi from Afrocentric Elle Collection offers the right blend of style and comfort for steamy Caribbean days (and nights) when looking good is the only option.
Life in the Virgin Islands—and the Caribbean—is beautiful, bright, bold, and hot. That means stocking your wardrobe with items that work overtime in the areas of style and comfort is a must. For the girls who never compromise looking good no matter how high the mercury rises outside, we’ve found the perfect dress for you!
We are obsessed with this beautiful, printed maxi, available locally for purchase at Sweet Magnolia, located on Strand Street in downtown Christiansted. It’s all you’ll need for making an entrance at annual daytime festivals like AgFest, Mango Melee, Pate Festival or Tart Wars—popular events among locals who attend to see and be seen. Nighttime events like Jump Up in Christiansted or Rhythms at Sunset in Frederiksted are ideal places to flaunt this beauty, too.
Here’s why this maxi checks all the boxes for the next outdoor event you’ll be attending this summer, whether on- or off-island:
Coolest Cotton – CHECK.
Cotton is a breathable fabric that is great for keeping you cool when it’s hot outside. Temps soar this time of year and strolling around outside can get steamy. This dream dress is made from 100% cotton and will keep you comfortable and cute all at the same time.
Adjustable Neckline – CHECK.
For the girls whose neck and shoulders are among their best features, this dress is for you! The adjustable feed-through straps are great for showing off desirable top features, while offering comfort and coverage around your chest area. No more shifting, tugging and pulling—just niceness.
Bold & Bright – CHECK.
The yellow, dotted print makes you think of mangoes or pineapple tarts, right? Wearing a bold print at an outdoor event guarantees you’ll stand out from the crowd.
Pockets – CHECK.
The pockets are cut so generously in this dress you could fit a handful of anything in there! Accessorizing the look with a cute straw tote or basket is ideal, if shopping vendors at the outdoor event is a priority.
Easy-Breezy – CHECK.
This one-size dress is a true one-size dress. The free-flowing style is great for all body types. Throw on your favorite sandals, earrings, bangles, and sunglasses and be on your way. If you’re a girlee of a shorter height, cutting a few inches off at the hem is recommended.
The dress is available in a host of vibrant prints and colors. We love it and we know once you get your hands on it, you’ll love it, too.
