| Phare Drop-Shoulder Silk Dress: Choose this if you want a lustrous silk maxi with minimalist baroque styling for occasions where an asymmetric, off-the-shoulder look fits the dress code. The orange satin-finish fabric (93% silk, 7% elastane) drapes over one shoulder, gathers at the right hip, and falls to the floor in a fit-and-flare silhouette with a left-side thigh-high slit and hidden side zip; note the floor-length hem pools slightly at the ground. It comes in sizes 8 to 16, and the listed length of 147 cm (about 57.75 inches) was measured from the top of the shoulder on a size small.[1,2,3,4] | Phare Draped Asymmetrical Silk Dress: Choose this if you want a flowy, lightweight silk-blend dress (93% silk, 7% elastane) with an unlined, glossy finish and a dramatic asymmetrical one-shoulder drape, gathered at the waist and falling to a gently flared ankle-length hem with a hidden side zip. The fitted, draped design suits formal or statement occasions, and most reviewers (82 responses) say it fits true to size, though a few found it runs small—STAUD advises sizing up if you're between sizes. Note the listing varies: this variant is size 12 in Mint/Pistachio Green, and the page's own description is inconsistent, calling the dress both cotton poplin and silk.[5,6,7,8,9,10] | Phare Silk-Blend Draped Dress: Choose this if you want a special-occasion maxi in STAUD's stretch silk (93 percent silk, 7 percent spandex) with a lustrous satin-like finish, an asymmetric one-shoulder draped neckline with a short cuffed sleeve, ruching at the fitted waist, and a smooth bias-cut skirt that falls to an ankle-grazing hem in brown, offered in sizes 6 through 16. Be aware the fit runs close: the brand advises sizing up if you are between sizes, and one renter said she could have sized up for a less tight fit even while calling the waist drape really perfect. The dress is unlined with a hidden side zip closure.[10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17] |
