Tencel is a dream come true.
It's a breathable, comfortable fiber. Its smooth sheen has a hint of glamour. It's also stronger when wet than dry.
These qualities make it perfect for a modest gal in any season.
Keep reading to discover three looks featuring this heavenly fabric.
The outfits are size-inclusive from XXS-5X. I've also made sure to present you with different colors, not just the standard light blue. Scroll to the bottom for details on my personal favorite.
Look 1: Mushroom taupe with fruit & florals
Silk scarf: Amazon / Dress: The Drop, XXS-5X / Layering tee: Esteez S-XXL / Underskirt: Beautelicate, S-XXL / Earrings: Etsy / Stretch belt: Grace Karin, S-XL / Flower crown: Amazon
This tiered tencel dress comes in sizes XXS-5X. In comes in twenty colors, including some prints. I especially love the 'ginger' and 'rosette' colorways.
Each strap on the dress has three buttonholes. You can secure them in the back straight or crossed. For length reference, I'm 5'4".
The accessories
Silk scarf: Amazon / Earrings: Etsy / Stretch belt: Grace Karin, S-XXL / Sunglasses: Foster Grant / Bracelet: Ettika
These earrings are made with real orange slices! I am obsessed. They are set in resin, and have a lovely sheen.
The silk scarf is a 35" square. It features a print of 'Flower Garden' by painter Gustav Klimt. The metal stretch belt comes in several different gold and silver styles. Confession: I only wear stretch belts.
Look 2: Ocean-blue ombre
Tencel dress: Time & Tru (XS-XXXL) / Bolero: Amazon, S-3X / Hat: Headcovers
Nothing says leisure like a loose-fitting maxi dress. This one from Walmart (!!) has a lovely ombre effect. Its drape is silky and luxurious. Yes, seriously.
Wear it unbelted for a relaxed morning. Then tie the self-belt in a bow for a brunch date.
The accessories
Hat: Headcovers / Pin: Amazon, similar here / Crystal earrings: Amazon / Ring: Swarovski, similar here
This cotton jersey turban hat from Headcovers is one of my favorites. I've styled it over a lightweight head shaper for subtle volume. I zhuzhed the pleats before adding a bejeweled silver-tone kilt pin. You can find a similar one made with Swarovski crystals here.
Look 3: The berry beret & wrap dress
Dress: Quince, XS-XL here, 1X-3X here / Layering tee: Esteez, S-XXL / Underskirt: Beautelicate, S-XXL / Reversible beret: Amazon
This jersey-knit wrap dress (misses here, plus here) is made of a smooth tencel-spandex blend. The shawl collar adds a tailored yet feminine accent.
For extra security, I've styled the dress with a black underskirt (S-XXL). It's made of 100% cotton, and has beautiful eyelet edging.
The second photo above shows the dress with a lace-waistband half slip underneath. This one comes in sizes S-3X in black, beige, and white.
The wrap dress comes in six solid colors. I've been eyeing the sage, navy, and dark olive.
The beret & earrings
Beret: Amazon / Earrings: Amazon / Necklace: DIY with glass beads
This coordinating berry beret is reversible! It's made of a smooth cashmere blend. The oversize pearl earrings have leverback ear wires that wont snag the beret.
I made the necklace with bugle beads and faceted glass teardrop beads. They flatter the dress without overpowering it.
I hope these tencel dresses keep you feeling comfortable and chic all year round.
