Why do we love this dress?

We are in love with the dreamy aesthetic of this gown that combines sultriness and contemporary appeal in one. Its strapless neck offers everlasting charm, while the black colour adds depth and mystery.

Why should I buy this dress?

This gown has underwire cups that not only offer support but also lend your curves a sexy lift. It comes with an underpinned bodysuit that provides you with maximum coverage, fastened by a concealed hook and zip fastening at the back.

Where would I wear this dress?

Wear this gorgeous gown to cocktails and other after-parties for a look that is sure to make a statement.

What shoes should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with the BALMAIN Ruby Monogram Slingback Pumps. These Italian-crafted beauties have pointed toes and monogram jacquard detailing on the adjustable buckled ankle straps to make them instantly recognisable and add style. Gold stiletto heels make you look tall and chic, creating a look that is truly statement-making.

What bag should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with the DEMELLIER LONDON Net Sustain Vancouver Croc-Effect Leather Shoulder Bag. This luxurious number is designed with a double arrow-inspired clasp at the front flap to add a modern flair, opening to reveal two main compartments that are perfect for organised storage. A detachable shoulder strap offers multiple styling options and keeps your hands free.

What we don't love about this dress?

We wish this cape-adorned gown had silicone lining along the strapless sweetheart neck to avoid any unwanted slip-ups.
