| Elma Long Ruched Velvet Dress: Choose this if you want a floor-length evening dress in Burgundy velvet with a deep V-neck, gathered bodice, and short flutter sleeves. It is made of heavyweight stretch velvet jersey (93% polyester, 7% elastane) intended for a rich drape, fully lined in silky jersey, and closes with a hidden side zip, in listed sizes 4 to 14. Note the floor-skimming length is documented for size 4 (55 inches from the shoulder), so longer or shorter heights may see different pooling at the hem.[1,2,3] | Marina Cowl-Neck Floral Halter Dress: Choose this if you want a warm-weather maxi for occasions like garden parties or sunset cocktails, with a plunging draped cowl halter, bare shoulders, and an open back down to a waist-level band. The ultra-light, fluid sheer chiffon (100% polyester with a full silky lining) drapes over a fitted waist and flares slightly to a floor-grazing hem that measures 57 inches from the top of the shoulder, all over a large floral print on a dark brown background in sizes 4 to 14. Note the fabric shows slight translucence at the front hem edge, and its drape is based on visual assessment rather than stated specifications.[4,5,6,7] | Karina Asymmetrical Collar Long Mesh Dress: Choose this if you want a fitted, floor-length maxi that hugs the body from bust to hem, with an asymmetrical collar, one-shoulder look, and ruched waist detail in a black-with-white-polka-dot print. Its stretchy, lightweight mesh with full stretch lining (94% polyester, 6% spandex shell) makes it easy to sit and move in for hours, so it suits occasions like summer weddings or day-to-evening events, and review analyses report a true-to-size fit with forgiving stretch. Note that the body-hugging fitted cut may not suit those preferring a looser silhouette, and it is offered in sizes 4 through 12 in the Polka Dot colorway (size 6 to 12 in the Assorted option).[8,9,10] |
