Product Insights
Contemporaine's Draped Collar Satiny Dress is a $150 CAD in-stock dress crafted from 100% recycled polyester satin that achieves liquid sheen and wrinkle resistance identical to virgin satin, with even dye uptake for consistent colorways. Its fit-and-flare silhouette runs true to size (size up if between sizes due to non-stretch satin) and features an unlined satin construction that trades opacity for fluid drape and breathability. The knee-length A-line with long sleeves is seasonless and suits varied body types, with a draped collar that feels less formal than typical satin necklines and buttoned cuffs adding a tailored accent. Dry cleaning preserves the drape and satiny finish, and the recycled material supports Simons' 40-60% recycled product goal.
Verified claims
- Sheen
- Recycled polyester satin achieves liquid-like sheen identical to virgin satin.
- Color consistency
- Recycled satin takes dye evenly for rich and consistent colorways.
- Durability
- Durable and wrinkle-resistant as virgin polyester; low-maintenance.
- Eco credentials
- This dress uses 100% recycled polyester satin made from recycled plastic bottles, supporting Simons' 40-60% recycled product goal.
- Material
- 100% recycled polyester satin with liquid sheen, machine washable on gentle cold.
- Fit
- Fit-and-flare silhouette with an A-line hem and slim-fit, waist-defining midsection; runs true to size, and size up if between sizes due to the non-stretch satin.
- Opacity
- Unlined satin construction is deliberate for fluid drape; opacity varies by shade, with dark Chocolate/Espresso covering well and lighter Slate Blue often benefiting from a slip.
- Versatility
- Knee-length fit-and-flare A-line with long sleeves and a draped cowl neckline is seasonless and forgiving across body types.
- Drape
- Recycled polyester satin is lightweight, wrinkle-resistant, and shape-retentive.
- Design
- In-house design team sources European trends for considered craftsmanship.
- Collar formality
- Draped cowl collar reads as less structured and more modern than V-neck or sweetheart satin dress necklines.
- Care
- Machine wash this dress on a gentle cold cycle with mild detergent and hang it to dry; dry cleaning is the safer option for preserving the drape and satiny finish.
- Sizing advice
- True to size; size up if between sizes due to non-stretch satin.
- Cuffs
- Long sleeves with working buttoned cuffs add a tailored, career-oriented accent that plain-sleeve satin dresses lack.
- Cocktail suitability
- The dress is cut as a cocktail/evening dress: its knee-length fit-and-flare silhouette, draped cowl neckline, long sleeves, and fluid satin drape suit cocktail hours, fall weddings, receptions, and evening events.
- Brand exclusivity
- Contemporaine is Simons' in-house brand, designed in Canada, so this dress is exclusive to Simons and won't be found at other retailers.
- Brand positioning
- Contemporaine delivers modern, classic lines for career women, distinct from Simons' fashion-forward Icône and youth-oriented Twik labels.
- Length
- The dress measures 36.25 inches (92 cm) from the top of the shoulder, landing at true knee-length on average heights.
- Length by height
- On petite frames around 5 ft 3 in and under, the hem tends to sit at or just below the knee; on taller frames around 5 ft 8 in and up, it lands at or just above the knee.

Compared within this brand.
| Draped Collar Satiny Dress: Choose this if you want a knee-length fit-and-flare dress with a draped cowl collar, defined waist, and long buttoned-cuff sleeves in a smooth, fluid satiny weave. The satin is 100% polyester made from recycled plastic bottles, and it comes in Chocolate/Espresso and Slate Blue across sizes X-Small to XX-Large. Note it is unlined and has no visible front or back closures, so it pulls on over the head.[1,2,3] | Tie-Neck Satiny Dress: Choose this if you want a sleeveless, above-the-knee satin dress with an elegant drape — it is made of stretchy, heavyweight satin (93% recycled polyester, 7% spandex) in a flared A-line silhouette with slit side-seam pockets. Its scarf collar ties into a bow at the back of the neck with long sash tails, and a V-shaped open back adds a dressier touch. Note it is unlined, so consider that against the satiny fabric.[4,5] | Jewel Buttons Straight-Fit Crepe Dress: Choose this if you want a short, straight shift dress with a relaxed, slightly A-line fall ending above the knee (about 94 cm from the top of the shoulder). It is made of flowy yet heavyweight crepe—per the retailer, it drapes beautifully—with 60% of its polyester from recycled plastic bottles, and features a polo collar with four pearly buttons, short puff sleeves, and an unlined body. It comes in Black or Pink across six sizes, from X-Small to XX-Large.[6,7,8] |
