I Didn’t Plan to Design a Dress β€” Until Cape Town Summer Forced Me To

  • By Thandi

Published: Thuesday, March 25, 2026

Last summer in Cape Town, I found myself standing in front of my wardrobe, frustrated.
Everything was either:
Too tight
Too hot
Or made me constantly adjust straps and hide my back
I wanted one simple dress β€” something I could wear from Kloof Street coffee dates, to sunset dinners in Camps Bay, without feeling restricted, exposed, or uncomfortable.
But nothing existed.
So I decided to design it myself.
That’s how the Backless Cami Dress was born.

What makes Cami dress different:

  • Lightweight, breathable fabric that keeps you cool β€” even on warm Cape Town days

  •  Adjustable back design so you decide how open or covered you want it

  • No slipping straps β€” adjust tighter for a more secure, sculpted feel

  • Relaxed, flattering fit that moves beautifully with your body

  • Effortless style you can dress up or down β€” from brunch to sunset drinks

The Dress That Adapts to You β€” Not the Other Way Around

 

Most dresses tell you how to wear them. This one lets you decide. The adjustable back design gives you full control: 

  • Want subtle coverage? Tighten the straps.
  • Want a daring open-back moment? Loosen them.
  • Want comfort all day? Adjust once and forget about it.
  • Your dress. Your rules.

No slipping straps.
No awkward adjusting.
No worrying about what shows.

Designed for Real South African Summers β˜€οΈ

Cape Town heat doesn’t play around β€” and neither should your clothes.

That’s why this dress is made from lightweight, breathable cotton that:

  • Keeps you cool on warm days
  • Drapes naturally over your body
  • Feels soft against your skin, even after hours of wear

Whether you’re walking along the promenade or heading out for cocktails, the fabric moves with you, not against you.

Perfect Summer Dress

Great quality!! I was skeptical but it’s not see through, definitely airy and flowy. I’m usually a large (175lbs, 5’6”, athletic build) but I sized down and it fits perfectly. I want more colors bc this is perfect for summer + my Europe trip. Great for everyday dress or a swimsuit cover. Also has a tie structure on the back to adjust to coverage as needed.
