Why do we love this dress?

We are in love with the silk-blend lamé construction that shimmers beautifully under the lights to give you an understated glam look. Plus, the versatility of the black colour makes it easy to style.

Why should I buy this dress?

The dress’s classic design gets a romantic update with layered ruffles at the cuffs and hemline, infusing flouncy movement for a playful yet elegant touch. The chic mock neck and elbow-length sleeves contribute to its overall sophistication.

Where would I wear this dress?

This dress by The Vampire’s Wife is ideal for various events. From formal affairs and cocktail gatherings to special evenings out, it effortlessly adapts to any occasion.

What shoes should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with the CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN Pyraclou 110 Studded Leather Wedge Sandals. The brand’s iconic pyramid studs gracefully trace the silhouette for a recognisable touch, featuring a buckled ankle strap that lets you adjust the fit. The wedge heel and 1.5-inch platform add a few extra inches to your height while maintaining stability.

What bag should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with the BALENCIAGA Extra Small Hourglass Top Handle Metallic Leather Bag. Showcasing a compact, structured silhouette, this beauty comes in a standout gold colour to elevate the look of the dress. The front-flap closure with magnetic-snap fastening keeps everything within reach, complete with a removable shoulder strap.

What we don't love about this dress?

The delicate nature of silk-blend lamé can require extra care to avoid snags or damage.
