Quinn | Pleated V-Neck Midi Cocktail Dress
Pleated V-Neck Midi Cocktail Dress for Weddings, Races and Evenings Out
Quinn is a sleeveless midi cocktail dress cut close to the body, with soft pleats folding across a wrap-effect V-neck bodice. A gathered waistband defines your shape before the skirt narrows into a pencil line with a front split for easy movement. It suits a spring wedding guest look, a day at the races, cocktail parties and the run of end-of-year Christmas functions.
Product Details
- Fabric look/feel: Smooth, matte woven finish with enough body to hold the pleats and a clean silhouette.
- Neckline: Crossover V-neck at the front, with a deeper V shape at the back.
- Sleeves: Sleeveless, with wide shoulder straps for a structured line.
- Cut/Fit: Fitted bodycon shape with a ruched waist and a figure-skimming pencil skirt.
- Closure: Zip at the centre back.
- Length: Midi, finishing around the knee.
- Details/Finish: Pleated bodice and a single front split on the skirt.
Styling Tips
- For the races, add barely-there strappy heels, a neutral clutch and a sculptural headpiece.
- As a wedding guest, pair with pointed pumps, drop earrings and a light wrap for the evening.
- For work drinks, layer a tailored black blazer over the top and finish with block-heel mules.
Care
Gentle cold wash or hand wash, then hang or lay flat to dry. Cool iron on the reverse if needed, and always check the care label first.
Size & Fit
This formal dress is designed to sit close through the bodice, waist and hips, as the photos show. Choose your usual size for a fitted look; if you're between sizes or prefer a little more ease through the hips, size up.
