Carmela Set

This ribbed knit dress in deep merlot mimics the proportions of a two-piece set, utilizing a high-contrast gold-tone button placket to define the torso. The vertical ribbing creates a streamlined, column-like silhouette that breaks only at the thigh-high side slit. It is a calculated exercise in texture, trading traditional tailoring for the ease of a pull-on stretch knit.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The composition is dominated by petroleum-based synthetics (78% polyester, 13% acrylic, 3% spandex), which significantly limits breathability and moisture management. The high plastic content creates a closed environment against the skin, increasing the potential for sweat retention and chemical transfer.
