Black Ruffle V Neck Maxi Dress

A black maxi dress with a V neckline, ruffle detail through the piece and a split at the side.

Thin straps adjust at the shoulder, setting the depth of the V at the front, and the back repeats the shape with a V detail of its own. The ruffle feature is the decoration the dress carries, breaking up a plain colour that would otherwise fall straight. A split at the side opens the skirt as you walk, and a side zip closes invisibly. The dress is lined.

Black at full length is the safest thing to own for an event and the ruffle is what stops it being dull. It works for a wedding, a dinner, a night with a stated dress code. The open V at the back is worth showing, so wear the hair up, choose a heel to suit the split, and keep everything beside the black maxi dress plain.
