Description

The Artistry of the Sister Garden in the April Cornell Sister Garden Cotton Midi Floral Dress

The Sister Garden Dress is more than just a garment; it is a canvas. April Cornell is world-renowned for her ability to translate the fleeting beauty of a blooming garden into wearable art, and the "Multi" colorway is the crown jewel of this season’s collection. Each petal and leaf is rendered with the depth and texture of a watercolor painting, ensuring that no two angles of the dress look exactly the same. It is a joyful, maximalist tribute to nature that instantly elevates your mood and your wardrobe.

Cool, Crisp, and Conscious Comfort

Crafted from 100% premium woven cotton, this dress is engineered for the heat. Unlike synthetic "fast-fashion" fabrics that trap moisture and cling to the skin, woven cotton allows for maximum airflow. It has a crisp, high-quality hand-feel that softens with every wash while maintaining the structural integrity of the A-line shape. Because it is made from natural fibers, it is also a more sustainable choice for the eco-conscious shopper looking for longevity in their closet.

Designed for the Way You Move

The beauty of the April Cornell Sister Garden Cotton Midi Floral Dress lies in its effortless A-line silhouette. It is designed to skim the bust and then flare gently toward the hem, providing a silhouette that is universally flattering and never restrictive. The addition of side-seam pockets ensures that you don't have to sacrifice style for function—perfect for keeping your phone or small essentials tucked away while you're on the go. At a 47-inch midi length, it provides sophisticated coverage that works beautifully with sandals, flats, or even a light wedge for more formal spring events.
Materials & Care

100% Cotton

How it Fits
Fit Notes & Model Sizing

The Silhouette: Easy A-Line. This dress is designed for "flowing movement." It fits most securely at the bust and shoulders before opening up into a generous skirt.
The Fabric: Woven Cotton (Non-Stretch). This fabric does not have "give," so we recommend checking your bust measurements for the most accurate fit.
The Length: 47 Inches (Midi). On most heights, this hits between the mid-calf and ankle.
Model Reference: Genevieve is 5'9" and wearing a Size Small.
Sizing Tip: April Cornell tends to have a relaxed, generous fit. If you prefer a more "to-the-body" look through the bodice, we suggest sizing down.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Sister Garden Dress see-through?

The 100% woven cotton is substantial enough to provide excellent opacity, especially given the density of the multi-colored floral print. Most customers find it perfectly modest for daytime wear without a slip.

How do I care for the watercolor print?

To keep the colors as vibrant as the day you bought it, machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. We highly recommend laying flat to dry; this prevents the cotton from shrinking and preserves the delicate floral pigments.

Does this dress have a zipper?

This style is typically a pull-over design, utilizing the generous A-line cut to allow for easy dressing. This adds to the "easy-wear" nature of the garment, removing the struggle of hard-to-reach back zippers.
