Blush Twist Front Pleated Midi Dress

A blush midi dress with long sleeves, a V neckline and a knot twisted into the front of the bust.

The twist knot is the detail everything else is arranged around: it gathers the front at the bust and sends the fabric down into a fine pleated A-line skirt rather than letting it hang. Long sleeves finish in elasticised cuffs, and the back of the neck opens on a button close with an invisible zip below. The satin has a soft feel to it. The dress is partially lined.

Fine pleats keep a midi length light on its feet, which is what makes this a dress for a long evening rather than a short one. Blush is gentle enough for an afternoon wedding and holds up once the lights go down. The V and the knot are doing the work at the front, so leave the neck bare and choose a heel that matches the length.
