Product Insights
Golden Crossover V-Neck Maxi Dress by Icône is a Simons in-house private label designed in Canada and sold only through Simons, offered in sizes X-Small to Large at one flat 125 CAD in a single Golden Yellow, in stock with 26 reviews; its core proposition is a semi-formal-to-evening, floor-grazing 59-inch crossover V-neck knit maxi whose sewn-in overlap keeps the V at fixed depth, hides bra and underwear lines without special undergarments, resists wrinkles for suitcase-to-event wear, and delivers drape and finish buyers say read far above the price, with the warm saturated dyed gold acting as the statement so no heavy jewelry is needed. The main tradeoff is that this is a lightweight, thin, unlined 95% polyester/5% spandex knit that skims rather than grips, runs a full size generous requiring sizing down, sits deeper on a fuller bust, can fall awkwardly on fuller midsections, is subtly sheer where stretched at bust and seat and in direct sun or flash, has only cap sleeves covering the shoulder cap and very top of the upper arm, can read dull on some complexions with no alternative colorway, and has a left-side slit from above the knee to roughly mid-thigh that would show a full-length slip; length grazes the floor around 5 ft 9 to 6 ft 0, clears the ground over heels near 5 ft 7, pools below about 5 ft 6, and pushes buyers under about 5 ft 5 in to budget extra for hemming, though the dress can be hemmed to midi and worn as an everyday style with sneakers and a jean jacket. It is not a black-tie gown, the elastic waistband is the first point of wear with dryer or iron heat, prolonged UV, or overstretching, and a minority of units arrive thinner despite most getting the praised drape, so inspection on arrival matters; care is machine wash cold and hang dry, no bleach and no dry cleaning needed, with no third-party brand markup at 125 CAD.
Verified claims
- Fit
- Runs a full size generous: an XL/16 wearer fits the Large, so size down.
- Bust coverage
- The crossover V closes by overlap, so the neckline sits deeper on a fuller bust.
- Body type coverage
- The crossover drape flatters many, but can fall awkwardly on fuller midsections
- Total length
- Measures 59 inches (150 cm) shoulder to hem and grazes the floor around 5'9 to 6'0.
- Length by height
- Floor-grazing from 5 ft 9 to 6 ft 0; clears the ground over heels near 5 ft 7; pools below about 5 ft 6.
- Hemming cost
- Buyers under about 5 ft 5 in should budget extra to hem the 59-inch dress.
- Styling
- Buyers hem this maxi to midi and wear it as an everyday dress with sneakers and a jean jacket.
- Side slit
- One left-side slit opens from above the knee to roughly mid-thigh.
- Drape
- The 95% polyester 5% spandex knit skims the body rather than gripping it.
- Waist construction
- The skirt gathers into a thin elastic waistband, releasing the fullness in soft, shifting folds.
- Batch variation
- Most units get the praised drape; a minority arrive thinner, so inspect on arrival.
- Hand feel
- Soft, smooth and stretchy, but lightweight and thin rather than plush.
- Neckline security
- The sewn-in crossover keeps the V at a fixed depth and won't fall open when you sit, bend or reach
- Sheerness
- Subtly sheer, sheerest where stretched at bust and seat, and in direct sun or flash.
- Undergarments
- The draped bodice hides bra and underwear lines without special undergarments.
- Slit and slip
- The left-leg slit starts above the knee, so a full-length slip would show through it.
- Occasion suitability
- Worn as a wedding guest or mother-of-the-bride, from galas to ranch weddings
- Formality
- Reads semi-formal to evening; it is not a black-tie gown.
- Accessorizing
- The metallic gold is the statement, so no heavy jewelry is needed
- Color appearance
- Golden Yellow is a warm saturated dyed gold, subtler in person and not a shiny metallic foil.
- Skin tone
- The warm gold sheen can read dull on some complexions, with no alternative colorway.
- Color shift
- Unlined and subtly sheer, the gold shifts with what is worn underneath.
- Wash care
- Machine wash cold and hang to dry; no bleach and no dry cleaning needed.
- Waistband care
- Dryer or iron heat, prolonged UV, and overstretching wear out the elastic waistband first.
- Wrinkle resistance
- Buyers report the knit is virtually wrinkle-free, going from packed suitcase to event with no steaming.
- Value
- Buyers say the drape and finish read far above the 125 CAD price.
- Size pricing
- Every size X-Small to Large is one flat 125 CAD in the single Golden Yellow.
- Brand positioning
- A Simons in-house private label designed in Canada and sold only through Simons.
- Price positioning
- At 125 CAD the Simons house label carries no third-party brand markup.
- Fabric hand
- The fabric is lightweight and fluid rather than plush, and the dress is unlined and subtly sheer.
- Sleeve coverage
- Cap sleeves cover only the shoulder cap and the very top of the upper arm.
- Size options
- All four sizes X-Small to Large are stocked at one flat 125 CAD in a single Golden Yellow.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Golden Crossover V-Neck Maxi Dress: Choose this if you want a statement maxi for galas, weddings, or destination events: it is a metallic gold, finely pleated dress with a crossover V-neck, gathered cap sleeves, a thin elastic waistband, and a long side slit, in a flowy, stretchy 95% polyester and 5% spandex fabric that reviews describe as lightweight, wrinkle-resistant, and comfortable for extended wear. Note it is unlined and subtly sheer, though reviewers report the draping hides bra lines without special undergarments. Be aware that sizing reportedly runs large (many suggest sizing down) and the extra-long length means wearers under 5 feet 5 inches will likely need hemming, and fit feedback is mixed on fuller midsections.[1] | V-Neck Double-Face Satin Maxi Dress: Choose this if you want a formal-yet-versatile maxi in rich double-sided satin with a heavy, flowy drape, made from 98% recycled-bottle polyester with 2% spandex. Reviewers say the minimal silhouette works for weddings and vacation dinners and that the exceptionally long cut (58.25 inches, or 148 centimeters, from the shoulder) falls to the floor even on very tall frames. Note it is unlined, the decorative hem border may prevent shortening if you are under 5 feet 9 inches without heels, and a few reviewers found the bodice and sleeves run small.[2] | Side Slit Twisted Strap Maxi Dress: Choose this if you want a fitted, one-shoulder maxi for dressed-up summer occasions like outdoor dining or long events: its ultra-supple 96% polyester, 4% spandex jersey has a double-layered bust and a high side slit, and one reviewer found the cut and fabric easy to wear for hours. It comes in 52 inches (132 cm) length with asymmetric ruched and twisted straps, in Black, Blue, and Navy/Midnight Blue in sizes X-Small through Large, though Burgundy is listed only in X-Small to Medium. If you order online, note one customer reported the refund process as cumbersome when the dress didn't meet expectations.[3] |

Dress for a skinny lady
I wanted to love this dress, like a goddess. But it doesn’t look beautiful in a big body. Sorry I have to return it.
So flattering and glam
Cannot gush enough about this dress. It drapes beautifully and I feel great in it! Typically an XL / 16 in dresses and the large fits perfectly.
Beautiful buy!
This is a glam dress. The waist is right at the narrowest part of the torso and the rest drapes well. The gold is not too brassy either. Went down a size from usual as the draping over the bodice fit better.
Magnifique robe de soirée
Magnifique robe de soirée
elegant
looks so nice and perfect for a gala
Very nice
Comfortable. I bought it for a masquerade party to match a gold mask. Will where it again as well.
Very long
I think it is going to work well for a ranch style casual wedding and the bodice is true to size, but it is very long (no problem, I will just have it hemmed. Better too long than too short!). I normally would have bought S but I read the comments so I ordered XS. Delivery was quick which was great. I love you Simons!! The last Canadian Department Store!!! Keep on keeping on!!!
Very happy with this dress!
Was looking for a wedding guest dress & so happy with this one. It’s flattering & comfortable. Can’t wait to wear it.
I wasn’t sure it was
I wasn’t sure it was for me but I love it! Flattering fit and it isn’t too glossy. It’s a mother of the bride dress for me. The wedding is an outdoor simple but elegant gathering. I plan to wear it after with a jean jacket and sneakers and shorten it a little.
Pretty
The dress is flattering. The material is light and doesn’t wrinkle. My only concern is the colour does not go well with all skin tones. It would look better if I had a tan even though I have olive skin tone. This dress would look good on slim and curvy body types.
Wanted to love it
Fits too big but comfortable
Beautiful!
Expectations exceeded.
Le prix surprenant
L’originalité pour occasion spéciale
Lovely dress
The material of this dress is not the highest quality, however, overall the design is nice and it looks good on. No fussing with special undergarments - its easy to wear looks stylish. Good value overall.
Élégance
Fait vraiment bien, confortable, chic, pas besoin de beaucoup d’accessoires. Elle est la vedette!
Beautiful surprise!
What a lovely dress for an unbelievable price!
Tissu laissé à desirer
Le tissu est d’une qualité épouvantable! J’ai du le retourner!
Robe légerte
Le tissus est étonnament très mince, l'aspect fait chic mais à la fois décontracté.
Needs a belt
Looks beautiful - great fabric - but must try on for true size - I had to return it as it did not look good on me. Would be much better with a nice belt
MamaBear
This dress is perfect for my carribean cruise. Doesn’t wrinkle AT ALL and provides the coverage I need to wear a bra with my dressy attire.
Robe chic
Bon rapport qualité prix.
Beautiful and comfortable
The dress drapes nicely and the gold is more subtle in person. I like being able to wear my usual bra and underwear and it doesn’t show. I read a review that it does t wrinkle but I haven’t tested it out.
Wow!
Très confortable et bien ajustée, sans être trop décolletée. Évidemment trop longue vue ma petite taille 4'9", mais la couturière s'en est occupée.
Maxi Dress
Simple and perfect. . . . good for all seasons!
Superbe robe
Prix très abordable
Belle robe !!
La robe correspond à mes attentes pour le prix, belle coupe, je mesure 5p7 et pèse 192 lbs j’ai prix large et c’est parfait!
