The Merlot Muse Croc-Embossed Mini Dress
Make an entrance with texture, not extra accessories. The Merlot Muse Croc-Embossed Mini Dress pairs a deep V lapel neckline with a glossy crocodile-style pattern and angled, wrap-look folds through the skirt. Long sleeves balance the short hem for a bold dinner or evening-event look.

Size Guide
Size references and measurement ranges reproduced from the original listing. It does not specify whether these are body or garment measurements; use them as guidance, not a guaranteed fit conversion.
| Size | US Reference | Bust (in) | Waist (in) | Hips (in) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 2–4 | 33.0–34.5 | 25.0–26.5 | 35.0–36.5 |
| M | 6–8 | 35.0–36.5 | 27.0–28.5 | 37.0–38.5 |

| XL | 14 | 39.5–41.5 | 31.5–33.5 | 41.5–43.5 |
How to Style It
Pair with simple heels and a compact bag for dinner or a party. Keep necklaces minimal around the plunge and let statement earrings complement the textured finish.
Fit Notes
The original listing recommends sizing up if between sizes or seeking a more relaxed feel. Stretch and lining are mentioned in its introductory copy, but no stretch rating, lining composition, or detailed construction information is supplied. The wrap-look panels do not establish an adjustable wrap closure. Consider your preferred neckline coverage and underlayers. Dress length measurements are not provided; mini coverage varies with height. Bag and jewelry pictured are not included.
Wash & Care
Original care guidance: spot clean with a damp cloth or hand wash gently in cold water. Do not bleach. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat and sunlight. Do not iron directly on the faux leather surface. Follow the garment’s care label if instructions differ.
