Size Guide

A Halter Maxi Dress That Draws the Waist In Softly

This halter maxi dress is made for evenings out, from dinners to dressed-up celebrations. A softly gathered bodice and a twisted back give a clean, flattering line that holds the eye.

Design Notes

  • Twisted Halter Neckline
    The neckline gathers into a twisted halter strap at the throat, framing the shoulders and drawing attention upwards in a quietly polished way.
  • Ruched Waist Shape
    Soft ruching gathers across the waist before the skirt skims the hips, shaping a defined, close line that sits smoothly on the body.
  • Floor-Skimming Length
    The skirt falls to the ankle and covers the legs and feet, while the bodice covers the front and leaves the shoulders bare.
  • Twisted Open Back
    A knotted twist sits at the base of the open back, while seams curve down the skirt so the hem flares gently as you walk.

Wear it with slim gold heels and a small clutch for a long dinner, then with strappy sandals and a light wrap at a late garden party. The knotted back is the detail only this dress has, giving you a finish worth turning around for.
