Elena | Velvet Wrap Long Sleeve Midi Dress
Long Sleeve Velvet Wrap Dress for Evenings and Celebrations
Meet Elena, a long sleeve velvet midi dress that brings a soft sheen and a flattering shape to every occasion on your calendar. The wrap-style V neckline flows into gathered ruching at the side waist, and the skirt crosses over into a curved tulip hem that moves with you. Wear it to cocktail parties, wedding receptions, work Christmas functions or a special dinner out.
Product Details
- Fabric look/feel: Plush velvet with a soft pile and a rich, light-catching sheen.
- Cut/Fit: Close-fitting through the bodice, waist and hips for a sculpted silhouette.
- Neckline: Crossover wrap-style V neckline that frames the collarbones.
- Sleeves: Long, slim sleeves finishing neatly at the wrist.
- Length: Midi, falling below the knee towards mid-calf.
- Details/Finish: Defined waist seam, gathered side ruching and an overlapping skirt with a tulip hem.
- Style: Elegant occasion dressing, offered in black and deep jewel tones.
Styling Tips
- Add strappy heels, drop earrings and a metallic clutch for a polished wedding guest or cocktail look.
- Pair with black knee-high boots and a tailored coat for cooler nights out.
- Layer a cropped blazer over the top with block heels for an end-of-year work function or dinner.
Care
Gentle cold hand wash or a delicate cycle inside out; avoid wringing, dry flat in the shade and steam lightly rather than pressing the pile. Always check the care label.
Size & Fit
Elena is cut to follow your curves, with a fitted bodice and a body-skimming skirt. If you prefer a little more ease through the waist and hips, consider sizing up. The wrap-style hem opens slightly at the front, giving room to walk comfortably.
