Noemie Off Shoulder Maxi Dress - Burgundy

Burgundy, off the shoulder, cut close to the floor — the Noemie is not a dress for arriving quietly, and it does not seem to want to be. The neckline folds over in a straight line and sits off the shoulder, with short sleeves below it, so the collarbone and the tops of the arms are the exposed part. A mesh overlay runs over the dress. Inside the bust a rubber grip does the holding, which is why there is no zip: it pulls on. The fit is bodycon the whole way down, and the dress is lined. An off-shoulder neckline decides your hair for you — up, or at least off the shoulders, or the line is lost. It also decides the necklace question, which is no. A heel, an earring, a small bag. Best at an evening wedding, where a deep burgundy behaves like a neutral and photographs like it is not.
