| Asymmetrical Draped Collar Crepe Dress: Choose this if you want a black one-shoulder maxi dress with an asymmetrical draped collar that covers the left shoulder while leaving the right bare, made from light, fluid crepe (100% polyester from recycled plastic bottles) with a silky bodice lining. It suits occasions calling for a fitted bodice with waist ruching, a straight column skirt, and a side slit, in sizes X-SMALL to XX-LARGE. Note that it lists black as the only color, the hem may show slight translucency, and the 131 cm (51.5 inches) shoulder-to-hem length is specified for the SMALL size only.[1,2,3,4] | Side Slit Draped Shoulder Dress: Choose this if you want a maxi-length, one-shoulder dress with a draped strap, fitted-and-slightly-flared silhouette, side ruching and a side slit in a stretchy acetate-spandex knit with a subtle sheen. It is fully lined sheer microfibre, hides a side zip closure, and comes in X-Small through X-Large; note that only part of its polyester comes from recycled plastic bottles.[5,6,7,8] | Mesh Drape Halter Mermaid Dress: Choose this if you want a deep-V halter maxi with a fitted, heavily ruched bodice, side waist cutouts, an open back, and a gathered skirt that turns semi-sheer below the flare for a dramatic mermaid silhouette. The dense knit and mesh in 93% polyester and 7% elastane is described by the merchant as stretchy, ultra-comfortable draping, and it comes in Burgundy in sizes X-Small, Small, and X-Large. Note that Contemporaine's tailored cuts reportedly run small, and while the listing's style section calls the dress unlined, it also lists a 95% polyester and 5% elastane lining, so sizing and layering expectations may need checking.[9,10,11,12,13] |

Gorgeous and comfortable
★★★★★vanessa l.
Lovely dress. A little on the larger side so had to take in a tiny bit under the right arm. But gorgeous dress and the price was surprisingly low for the quality
