Recycled WonderTex is a new fabric made from recycled plastic bottles. We spent over two years developing this fabric to make sure it had the same luxurious feel and high-function features (think: machine-washability, wrinkle-resistance, tons of stretch) as our original WonderTex fabric—while giving recycled plastic bottles a second life in the process.

This piece has been treated with Polygiene®, an anti-odor finish. The fabric won’t hold smells, so you can wear your piece multiple times before tossing it in the washing machine. Learn more about Polygiene® here.

Made in Vietnam with fabric from Taiwan.

  • 53% Polyester, 40% Recycled Polyester, 7% Polyurethane

  • Note: We recommend pre-washing this style before making any alterations, since minor shrinkage may occur.

    Due to the nature of the fabric, the dye from this style may bleed slightly. We recommend wearing it with dark colors to avoid stains.

    Machine wash cold. Do not bleach. Do not tumble dry. Line dry. Low iron. Dry clean okay.

Customer photo review of Etsuko Dress - Recycled WonderTex :: Black

Almost perfect! Overall the dress fit great in size 4 (5'5'', 125 lbs). The only thing that I would change is the way the shoulders fit. If you look closely at this picture they stick out a little. I think I needed it to fit a little tighter on the back by the zipper to pull that fabric in for it to be perfect for me. It was a last minute purchase for an interview so I kept it. I felt appropriately dressed for an interview in my jeans-friendly office. I think I will also wear it this winter with tights, booties and a scarf, poncho or jean jacket.

Flattering fit I bought this just to have in my closet for any occasion that requires a demure, attractive style. I’m 5’1 and found the length perfect. As I’m in my 60’s I like that it covers my arms but can be worn in all climates. I’m not very shapely and also conscious of my tummy area though I’m slim and found the fit to be super flattering. A good basic for the closet. Adding the wide belt sold here took the look up a notch.

I have been looking for a black dress for funerals and this is perfect for all seasons. It is comfortable, very stylish and the right length

Etsuko Dress - Recycled WonderTex :: Black

I own 2 other Etsuko’s, the foulard/navy multi, and a steel gray, and I just added the black to my wardrobe. The sizing is consistent across my two others, and although the material is different from an older Etsuko I had and wore to pieces, I am okay with the change. I am 5’9 and the length hits a the top of my knee. One surprise tho, my 2 other Etsukos didn’t come with a belt but the this one did.

A very sharp looking and versatile dress, but did not fit the way other MM Lefleur dresses have fit for me. I got my usual MM size (8) but found this one was tighter in the hips and shoulders. I opted to keep other pieces and returned this one, but the style was good enough I might reconsider and order in the next size up sometime in future.

Love the style/fit, but was disappointed in the fabric. When I had it hemmed, the hem was glued making for a very difficult alteration.

Etsuko Dress - Recycled WonderTex :: Black

Great dress with alterations I have purchased this dress several times in different colors and really like it because of the classic nature. That said, I always have to take it to the tailor to fix the shoulders, as they always pucker in an unusual way. I also don't use the belt it comes with, prefer something a little wider and placed lower due to my shape.

Dissapointed I had an expectation that a dress from this company would be would be quality, especially for the price. I was amazed that the fabric seemed cheap and there was no lining in the dress at this price point.

This dress is perfect for me in every way! I absolutely love everything I’ve ever gotten from your company. Keep up the splendid and creative designing!

Material feels cheap I think Material feels cheap I think you know that the shoulders are weird Really disappointed in this dress. I wish I hadn’t taken the tags off!

Etsuko Dress - Recycled WonderTex :: Black

thin material, unflattering fit The material, fit, and quality of this dress falls significantly short of its price tag. I was surprised to find the material both thinner and stretchier that anticipated, and, frankly, for what I felt I was paying for. I'm by no means an exceptionally busty woman, but this dress still stretched across my chest awkwardly, but bunched and bulged in other areas. In short, this dress just wasn't for me.

Not for hour glass figures Was not a fan of the fabric, it felt a little cheap to me. Also the fit did not work on me at all. I’m a true hourglass shape (26in waist, 38in hips), and the dress was really straight with little curvature for the hips/waist. With the belt buckled (on the tightest setting- which also made the belt look ridiculous and dangling off to the side) to fit my waist there was too much extra fabric and looked all bunched up. Would definitely not recommend this for hourglass figures.

Nice but not for the long-waisted Nice design and great design/tailoring around the upper back and shoulders so there is no gap at the neckline. Unfortunately my long torso did not match with this dress. Would be great if dress had a lining also.

Work dress I really love this dress. I ordered the 2 and the 4, the 2 fit better (I’m 5’4 120) but was a little snug in the neck and shoulders and I really need to move when I work, so I opted for the 4. Love the pockets the fabric is comfortable. If you’re similar to my size and want the dress to fit like a glove, go with the 2.

Very versatile I have been trying to pare down my closet, and donated many impulse purchase items. This dress is a great basic to any wardrobe. You can dress it up or down, and wear it with or without the belt. The sleeves are a perfect length, and you can add a jacket on top for a more complete look. My favorite feature is that it has pockets.

Forever dress I am new to MM LaFleur, the Estsuko Dress Is my first purchase, and I’m now a fan! The dress is beautifully made, wonderful fabric, great fit, classic style. I’m going to be wearing this dress for many years.

Wonderful Dress - short This is a go to style for me. However, I am 5ft 5inches and it shows a great deal of leg when I sit down. I have the hem lowered, but it is still on the short side for work.

Etsuko Dress - Recycled WonderTex :: Black

Tight fitting I'm a size 4 and can typically wear any brand but this was very tight around the shoulders and chest. Fabric was light weight which is great for spring and summer. Otherwise a lovely dress you can dress up or down with.
