Fluted skirt with front split

Description
  • Hand-applied embellishment runs diagonally across the bodice - a trailing motif of sequins, beading and raised needlework that catches light as the gown moves.
  • Viscose fabric carries a cool handfeel and a soft, natural drape that skims the body without clinging, falling to a full-length hem of approximately 140cm.
  • High halterneck with a self-tie detail at the back of the neck, leaving the shoulders and back open for a refined, considered reveal.
  • The skirt opens into a fluted silhouette from the hip, creating movement with every step - particularly visible in the front split that allows the fabric to flow freely.
  • Fully lined in viscose, so the gown sits cleanly against the body with no pull or transparency through the skirt.

The viscose here behaves beautifully - it has weight without stiffness, so the gown hangs with quiet authority rather than billowing away from the body. That drape is what makes the embellishment work: as the skirt shifts, the beaded motif catches and releases light in a way that feels effortless rather than overdone. This is a dress that earns attention through craft rather than volume. For a black-tie event or a formal wedding, pair with strappy heeled sandals and minimal jewellery - a single fine-chain bracelet at most - letting the hand-worked detail speak for itself. The open back makes a strong case for wearing the hair up. At the races or a gala dinner, the fluted hem and high neck strike exactly the right balance between dramatic and considered. A sleek clutch bag and pointed-toe heels complete the look without competing with the gown's own artistry.
