Two looks in one: styled minimalist or cinched at the waist
This flowy, tiered midi dress in eco-friendly crepe works for days when you want a simple, minimalist outfit, thanks to a removable insert at the waist. Add the insert to cinch the silhouette for an hourglass shape, or take it out and let the dress hang loose for a more relaxed look.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Overlaid Belted Waist Midi Dress: Choose this if you want a fitted black midi dress in thick, eco-friendly crepe whose silhouette you can adjust: the removable faux-fur-trimmed waist insert lets you wear it as a minimalist piece or cinched for an hourglass look. It suits those drawn to long sleeves, structured shoulders with epaulets, a hidden back zip, and a back vent, in a viscose-spandex blend made in Italy. Note that the trim itself is 100% polyester and the dress comes only in black, in sizes 36 to 42.[1] | Tie-Neck Silk Midi Dress: Choose this if you want a light, fluid silk midi in a soft Martini Pink, with a self-tie collar you can wear open or in a loose bow, cape-like draped sleeves, and an asymmetrical high-low hem. The 100% silk crepe is described by reviewers as skimming the body rather than hugging it—better suited to a loose, softly traced shape than a fitted look—and as having just enough structure to layer under a blazer or oversized knit. The skirt is lined in an acetate-silk blend and the dress is made in Italy.[2,3,4,5,6] | Draped-Sleeve Fitted Midi Dress: Choose this if you want a minimalist Stella McCartney midi in a vivid cobalt blue that pairs a closely fitted, mid-calf silhouette with dramatic cape-effect draped sleeves. It is made in Italy from flowy, dense acetate crepe (73% acetate, 27% viscose) with a matte finish, a crew neckline, hidden side zip, and a teardrop keyhole back with tie details. Note that the keyhole opening exposes the upper back and the sleeves leave the underarm partially open, so consider coverage preferences before choosing.[7,8,9,10] |
