Short crepe mother of the bride dress with V-neck and short sleeves

A short, fitted crepe dress that finishes at the knee. The neckline forms a V, and the flutter sleeves, cut from the same fabric, open into wide ruffles that stop above the elbow.

At the waist, embroidered floral lace is appliquéd across the front and continues round the sides to the back. It marks the waistline and sets off the gathers of the skirt, which meet on the left hip.

The skirt wraps over, falls in a soft panel across the thigh and stays slim down to the hem.

The back opens into a deep V between the shoulders, the lace runs round at waist height, and a centre slit lets you walk freely.

A natural choice for wedding guests and the mother of the bride. It comes in petrol blue, celadon (sage green), magenta and navy. 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.
