Black wrap dresses with a neckline you adjust yourself

A wrap black dress gives you the say over its fit, since one tie controls how snug the waist is and how low the neckline falls. In the cold months we sew it in velvet and in lurex. The printed and polka dot wraps belong to our summer collection.

Velvet and lurex wraps for winter plans

From shoulder to hem, our short velvet wrap is 87 cm, which puts it above the knee on most of us. It’s a date or birthday dress, festive without any shine, and thin tights with stilettos are all it asks for. The other velvet mini has drape gathered at the waist that softly hides the tummy.

Need more length? The velvet midi falls below the knee and has a sharp triangle neckline. Long earrings belong with it, and in frost you’ll want a coat that covers the hem.

It’s the one we’d suggest for a New Year’s dinner with your parents or a corporate party in a restaurant, where a short hem feels like too much. The pile looks soft in evening light. Don’t iron it. A steamer from the wrong side takes out travel creases.

Black lurex is the party one. Long sleeves, a short hem, a V at the collarbones. For lunch the next day, a big black jacket and rough boots tone the shine down. We’d also pick matte tights for it, black or nude.

Prints, satin and dots for warm months

The summer wraps arrive with the warm season. One is black with blue flowers and a midi hem, and that print hides small creases after a long day at work. The rose print mini has tiny ties on its short sleeves. It’s made from a fabric with a matte silk look, 98% polyester and 2% elastane, and that bit of stretch helps on a dance floor.

The black satin wrap goes mini with long sleeves. Its stretch makes it easy to sit in, and a thin chain with a pendant fills the V nicely. Then there’s a soft floral mini that barely wrinkles. It’ll survive a suitcase and look fine the day you land.

Black and white dots look lively without being loud. They go two ways, a midi for a day that runs from a meeting to drinks and a mini for weekend walks. We make every one of them in XS to XL, and the tie forgives a little between sizes. Check your bust first. For the rest of our dark styles, start at black dresses.
