The Vivian Shao Chen Orchards Dress is a romantic and casual sleeveless summer dress. Gather details at the front and back neck opening frame the neckline. These gathers provide bust shaping and comfortable ease. The neckline is finished with a neat rounded collar. The collar and button placket provide a bit of visual and fitting structure to loose-fitting nature of the Orchards Dress.
