Short crepe mother of the bride dress with crystal embellishment and V-neck

A short crepe dress with a bodice draped on the bias. The V-neckline is edged with flat pleats running from the left shoulder and fanning out towards the right hip.

The sleeves are chiffon panels set into the armhole and left open. Wide and split along their length, they fall like petals to the elbow, in two light layers over the arm.

A crystal-embroidered ornament sits where the drapes meet, at the top of the right hip. From here, a crepe panel folds across the skirt on the bias and stops above the knee.

The straight, fitted skirt is cut just at the knee. The back, cut in a V between the shoulder blades, stays smooth, with a centre seam that slims the line down to the hem.

A natural choice for wedding guests and the mother of the bride. It comes in petrol blue, celadon (sage green), ivory, dusty pink and terracotta. Sizes run from French 32 to 56 (UK 4 to 28). Designed in Paris by Ellebeline, it’s available to try on at our partner boutiques.
