Embroidered Mesh Lace Trim Short Sleeve Midi Dress

Delicate floral embroidery runs in vertical trailing stems across the mesh overlay, giving the skirt a gentle A-line movement as it falls to midi length. Lace trim detail frames the high neck, sleeve edges and hemline, creating a consistent decorative border that ties the whole silhouette together. The sheer mesh sleeves offer just enough coverage to make this a considered choice for formal dress codes, without compromising the overall lightness of the dress. A defined waistband sits at the natural waist, drawing in the silhouette cleanly before the skirt flares out - the dress holds its shape rather than clinging. The high neck adds a refined, composed quality to the neckline, making jewellery entirely optional - the embroidery does the work. This dress earns its place at the more considered end of the occasion wardrobe. The embroidered mesh sits beautifully alongside structured occasion outerwear - a tailored blazer or an embellished bolero would work well for cooler settings without competing with the detail. At a summer wedding, garden party or a day at the races, it stands entirely on its own. The vertical stem embroidery draws the eye downward, making the silhouette feel long and composed, while the A-line skirt allows ease of movement throughout the day. Style as the model does here, with strappy heeled sandals that keep the focus firmly on the dress itself. A small structured clutch in a complementary tone rounds off the look without overcomplicating it. This is a piece that photographs well and wears well from ceremony through to the evening - no outfit change required. | Coast Women's Embroidered Mesh Lace Trim Short Sleeve Midi Dress in Purple | Size: 10
