The Silhouette

A deep burgundy midi selected for evenings that call for a stronger silhouette. Velvet holds light differently from satin — it absorbs rather than reflects, so the colour reads deeper as the room darkens. Ruching and shirring pull the body in from a high waist before the skirt releases. There is a lot of stretch in it, which is why it sits close without pulling. The styling can stay simple.

Fit & Sizing

Regular fit with a high waist and high stretch, so the garment measurements sit under the body measurement they will comfortably fit. The widest figure is a hem sweep, not a hip.

Size guide

How to measure. Measure over light clothing, keeping the tape level and comfortably loose.
Bust — around the fullest part, tape flat across the back.
Waist — around the narrowest part of the natural waist.
Hip — around the fullest part, roughly 20cm (8in) below the waist.
Length — from the shoulder seam straight down to the hem.

Sizing is not consistent between dresses. Each dress in the edit comes from a different maker, so please check the measurements on this page against your own rather than relying on your usual size.

The body-measurement chart for this dress is still being confirmed against the garment.
