Why You’ll Love It

The Lainey Mini Dress is a breastfeeding-friendly smock dress designed for real life — the kind you reach for on repeat without thinking twice. A relaxed oversized fit, flutter sleeves, and a front tie detail give her just enough shape without any fuss.

Features:

  • Discreet breastfeeding and feeding access
  • Adjustable front tie for coverage and fit
  • Flutter sleeves with a relaxed, floaty silhouette
  • Bump-friendly and postpartum-ready
  • Available in sizes 6–26

Fabric:

Made from 80% viscose, 20% cotton crepe — soft, breathable and lightweight. Due to the loose weave, crepe is more delicate than cotton or linen. Avoid rough surfaces and harsh washing. Follow care label instructions to maintain quality.

How It Fits (Spoiler: Like a Dream)

Please note: Customers often choose to size down in this style for a less oversized look. Please double check the size guide before making your purchase or reach out to our team for sizing advice.

A little TLC for your piece

🌸 How to Care for Your Lainey Dress

Your Lainey Dress in Black Crepe is floaty, playful, and made to be your throw-on-and-go hero. Here’s how to keep her looking fresh:

Wash me gently – Cold hand wash is best for my delicate crepe fabric. If you use the machine, pop me in a delicate bag on a gentle cycle.

Stay cool – Hot washes can shrink or damage my fibres, so always stick with cold.

Dry with care – Air dry flat or hang me in the shade. Please skip the tumble dryer — I like to keep my breezy drape and oversized smock shape.

Smooth me out – A gentle steam will freshen me right up if I wrinkle. Avoid direct heat on my tie detail and flutter sleeves.

Store me well – Fold me or hang me in a cool, dry spot. Keep me away from long sun exposure so my Black Crepe stays rich and bold.

🌺 Fabric Disclaimer

Our Crepe styles are crafted from a beautiful, breathable blend designed for comfort and elegance. Due to the nature of the loose weave, this fabric is more delicate than our cotton and linen pieces and requires extra care to maintain its quality and longevity.

Please note:

Crepe fabric is prone to pulls, snags, and general wear if not handled gently.

These garments are best suited for light, everyday wear. If you live a highly active lifestyle, they may not be the most practical choice.

To protect the weave, avoid rough surfaces, overuse, and harsh washing/drying methods. Always follow the care instructions provided.

Model Fit Info
Model fit guide

Customers praised this lightweight mini as "perfect for summer" with a flattering, flowy fit. The fabric is soft and airy, ideal for hot weather. However, several shoppers noted sleeves run tighter than expected and the fabric can slip off shoulders without undergarments. Some requested pockets and mentioned sizing runs large.

Very cute dress but sleeves run smaller than the rest.

This dress is extremely cute, its fabric is very light which is perfect for aus summers. However while the body form of the dress is nice and oversized unfortunately for me the sleeves were tighter than i would’ve liked, i generally have bigger arms than most people so this probably wouldn’t be an issue for a normal buyer.

So lovely and lightweight!

So lovely and lightweight, perfect for hot days and beach trips!
It is not see-through and has a great shape on the body.
I have a 130cm bust and 155cm hips, this dress flowed great and does not grab or cling anywhere. Bring on summer!

Lovely! But just a few little things…

Love the fabric and the fit, I usually wear a 10F S/M and the oversized shape is very comfy. I wish it had a hook in the bust though, if I don’t wear a top underneath the slippy fabric doesn’t stay on the shoulders very well and falls forward so so I end up flashing the world. Glad I got the black so I can just pop on a black shelf bra with it for some coverage, but I can’t wear a regular bra. Not sure what bra I could wear when I start breastfeeding. Would also love some pockets.

I do love the dress, but these small adjustments would make it 10/10.

Perfect … almost!

Love the fabric, the design and overall fit of the dress! My only let down in the sleeves.. I expected the sleeves to be wide enough too, however they’re tapered so smaller at the end where your arms come out from.
