Description
It’s time to ditch your basic LBD and give your wardrobe a luxe update with the VALENTINO GARAVANI Cotton-Blend Velvet Mini Dress. It has that timeless charm to it with a jewel neck, short sleeves, fitted bodice, and in-built shoulder pads for retro charm. What really stands out to me is the ruffled mini hem that adds a feminine flair to the dress for a decidedly fun and flirty finish. And, I love it when dresses have my favourite feature; side pockets.
Sizes: IT 36-46

Why do we love this dress?
This LBD in velvet composition looks feminine with ultimate polished charm. For me, the fabric alone of this dress sounds fancy, and the ruffled mini hem makes it even more special.
Why should I buy this dress?
It’s hard to resist a black dress when it looks this good, especially with side pockets. I love that it has that festive charm that also works wonders in casual settings. I mean, just think of all the ways you can style this dress for different occasions!
Where would I wear this dress?
This mini dress is a staple in every woman’s closet, making it perfect for nights out, New Year parties, and dinner dates. I would also wear it to the office with a pair of stockings.
What shoes should I wear with this dress?
I styled the look with the BALENCIAGA 110mm Knife Nylon Knot Pumps. This wow-worthy pair is special to my heart because of the exaggerated bows in all-black, arched on 110mm heels. It’s a classic style with visual appeal!
What bag should I wear with this dress?
I styled the look with the ANTHROPOLOGIE Studded Velvet Clutch. A plain black outfit can use some glamour with this clutch that’s studded with glass beads and crystals for a sparkly look. I would like to carry it as a clutch, but you can attach the shoulder strap to go hands-free.
What we don't love about this dress?
Keep in mind that this dress is made from a cotton-blend velvet that is prone to wrinkling.
