Long satin bridesmaid dress with cowl neck, open back and slit skirt

A long dress in fluid satin, built on draping. The cowl neckline falls in soft folds over the upper bust, held by very fine double straps over the shoulders. The bodice is then draped on the bias, the pleats crossing the torso to gather on the left hip.

The skirt stays slim and figure-hugging to mid-thigh, then opens with a high slit on the left leg. The hem flares slightly and skims the floor.

The back is bare to the waist. The straps cross over it in several fine rows and tie at the centre, releasing a long panel of satin that falls down the skirt to the knees.

Ideal for bridesmaids and wedding guests. Choose from celadon (sage green), ivory and yellow. Offered in French sizes 32 to 56, UK 4 to 28. An Ellebeline design from Paris, available from partner boutiques across Europe.
