Mickenna Emerald Off Shoulder Frill Midi Dress

Emerald has a way of upgrading everyone who wears it, and the Mickenna gives the colour a properly romantic frame — off the shoulder, softly gathered, finished in a satin sheen.

The sweetheart neckline shapes the front while elasticised shoulders let the short sleeves, cuffed in elastic, sit off the shoulder and stay there. Gathered detail on the bust and a cross overlay build the bodice, an attached tie cinches under the bust, and a hook and eye clasp closes the back. The soft satin sheen finish catches evening light; partial lining keeps it comfortable.

Midi length makes it a cocktail-hour natural — weddings, rooftop parties, dinners that deserve a dress. Gold jewellery against emerald is a solved equation, so spend the effort on shoes instead. Flattering was the design brief; the Mickenna signed it.
