Cut and sewn for you

Made for quiet sophistication, the Mini Dress is cut from a satin fabric. A floral pattern runs across the piece. Finished with appliques for subtle movement and texture. The fabric holds its shape while staying comfortable to wear through a long day or evening.

A a-line silhouette skims the body and defines the shape. The off-shoulder neckline frames the shoulders and neckline cleanly. The sleeves are finished to sit neatly on the arm. The mini length falls with an easy, fluid drape.

It is made for prom occasions and the moments that call for something considered. Style it with heels and a slim clutch to dress it up, or with flats and delicate jewellery for an easier take — the clean lines take direction either way. Choose the shade that fits the moment from Light Blue, White, Sage Green, Light Pink, Red and Black.

Why It Works

Cut in a fabric with a smooth, light-catching face that falls close to the body.
The silhouette is narrow at the waist and widening from the hip.
It opens on a sweetheart curve across the bust.
You get a mini hem — check your heel height for the look you want.
