Cut-Out Waist Jersey Midi Dress - Side Cut-Out Bodycon Dress for OEM

A bodycon dress with a cut-out at the side of the waist, in 78% polyamide with 22% elastane, unlined, pulling on. Placing the cut-out at the waist rather than anywhere else is the right decision: the waist is the narrowest part of the body, so an opening there reads as deliberate and flatters, where the same opening at the hip would just look like a hole. That much elastane is what lets the opening hold its edge against the body instead of gaping. The reference is the Lumen Dress by Maygel Coronel in arctic at 417 dollars, made in Colombia, ranked sixteenth in the retailer's cut-out dress list. Dongguan Bafinasa Garments Co., Ltd. develops comparable cut-out jersey dresses on OEM and ODM terms, from fabric and elastane specification through cut-out engineering to retail or FBA ready packing. We publish this as a development reference and build your own version of it, and we do not supply the branded original or reproduce anyone else's label.

Key Features

• Cut-out at the waist, which is where an opening flatters rather than just exposing
• 78% polyamide with 22% elastane, so the edge of the opening holds
• Stretch jersey that recovers rather than bagging
• Pull-on, nothing to interrupt the line at the side
• Bodycon fit, filed under both bodycon and cut-out
• Midi length at 49 in for size S/M
• Arctic, a pale blue that works as a summer neutral
• Unlined, keeping the line clean under a close fit
• Hand wash as stated, the right instruction for high-elastane knit
• Made in Colombia as stated

Customisable Options

• Fabric: polyamide elastane as the reference, recycled polyamide with GRS certification, viscose elastane, and the ratio
• Cut-out: at the waist as the reference, the size and shape, and whether the edge is finished, bonded or left raw
• Placement: one side as the reference, both sides, or a pair of openings
• Shoulder: as filed under bodycon, or with straps, a halter, or a one shoulder line
• Length from mini to midi to maxi, hem finish
• Lining, size set including the three-size scale, colour development, private label and care labelling

Specifications

Size Chart

The reference publishes one row, size S/M at bust 24 in, waist 21 in, hips 30 in and length 49 in, and we would not build your chart from it. Those are not body measurements and not garment circumferences on any normal reading; the most likely explanation is flat measurements on a high-stretch knit, which makes them unreadable as published. The length, 49 in, is the usable figure. Our grade below is a proposal, and on a cloth with 22% elastane the right way to specify fit is by stretch range rather than by circumference, which is what we would measure and record in your tech pack. The three-size scale works because the elastane does the fitting; a conventional five or six size scale would mean re-blocking rather than splitting this one.

Occasions and Styling

Suits parties, dinners, resort evenings and holidays. The cut-out is the whole look, so accessories stay minimal, and the midi length is easier to re-wear than a mini.

Production and Quality Control

There are no customer reviews on this listing, so there is no score to quote and no complaint pattern to read. We plan from construction, and on a cut-out dress in high-stretch jersey the construction is nearly all of it.

The cut-out is the first risk, and it fails in a specific way: an opening that sits flat on a form will gape or roll on a body, because the body is curved and the opening is not. That is the difference between a cut-out that looks designed and one that looks like a mistake, and it is worse at the waist than anywhere else, because the waist is where the body bends. We engineer the opening rather than cut it, finish or bond the edge so it lies flat, and test on real bodies, moving and sitting, rather than on a standing form. The edge also has to survive washing without curling.

Twenty-two percent elastane is the second. It is what makes the dress work and the most likely thing to fail: cheap elastane loses its return, and when it does the cut-out stops holding, the dress bags at the seat and the hem, and the whole thing loses its shape. We specify the yarn and the elastane brand rather than accepting a mill substitute, and we test recovery after washing and after wear, not only on the hanger. We also record the stretch range rather than just the circumference, because on this cloth the range is the real size tolerance.

Then the practical parts. Because the dress is unlined, close fitting and in a pale colour, opacity is checked in the actual colourway and in daylight, which matters more on arctic than it would on black. Seams have to stretch with the cloth or they pop, snagging is tested on a smooth knit, and the pull-on opening has to be big enough to get over the hips without stretching the garment out of shape every time it is put on. Every bulk shipment gets a measurement report against your approved chart.

Optional upgrades include GRS certified recycled polyamide with documentation, a defined composition and weight with testing reports, custom cut-out shapes and placements, bonded or finished edge options, alternative shoulders and lengths, a lining or a bonded interior, a conventional size scale, extended sizing, colour development and private label, hangtag and care labelling.

Pre-production sample approval, in-line inspection during cutting and sewing, and a final AQL inspection before packing, with measurement reports and photos shared before shipment.
