Why It Works
Gold-tone side buttons and a fitted bodice give this black midi dress a tailored edge that reads polished without trying.
- The column of gold-tone buttons running from hip to hem adds a distinctive construction detail that elevates the silhouette beyond a standard fit-and-flare
- The stretch polyester-elastane knit holds its structure across a full workday, making it practical for long meetings, commutes, and evening events
- A classic black colorway and midi length make it compatible with heels, flats, and a wide range of outerwear for varied professional contexts
Use Cases
- Morning client meeting or work presentation
- Professional conference or networking lunch

- Smart casual office environment, any day of the week
- Formal workplace occasion or end-of-year event

Fit Logic
- Silhouette: Fitted, seamed bodice through the waist with a full pleated skirt that flares from the hip and falls to midi length, approximately below the knee
- Best For: Works well for most body types; the defined waist and flared skirt balance proportions, and the midi length suits both petite and standard heights when paired with a heel
- Styling Tip: Add a structured belt at the natural waist, as shown, to sharpen the silhouette further and give the bodice a more tailored finish
Care Notes
- Fabric: 95% Polyester, 5% Elastane
- Washing: Dry clean only
- Drying: Do not tumble dry
- Ironing: If needed, press on low heat with a pressing cloth to protect the stretch fabric
- Special Notes: The elastane content may be damaged by high heat; dry cleaning preserves the shape and finish of the pleated skirt
