Women's Purple Compact Viscose Corset Maxi Dress

Structured corset bodice with vertical boning-inspired seam detailing for a sculpted, defined silhouette Square neckline with wide shoulder straps for a refined yet strappy finish Artfully gathered and ruched skirt panel to one side, creating elegant drape and movement through the maxi length Subtle front split at the hem for ease of movement without compromising the sophisticated silhouette Crafted from a compact viscose blend with a touch of elastane for a smooth, structured finish that holds its shape throughout wear This corset maxi dress is the kind of piece that makes a considered statement at any formal occasion. The structured bodice draws the eye upward whilst the gathered skirt detail adds a sculptural quality that sets it apart from a standard column dress. Wear it as seen here - paired with strappy metallic heeled sandals and hair swept back - to let the architectural detailing speak for itself. A sleek clutch bag and understated fine jewellery, such as a delicate chain necklace or drop earrings, will complete the look with quiet confidence. Ideal for black-tie events, weddings, graduation ceremonies, or an evening at the races, this dress transitions effortlessly from afternoon celebrations to evening affairs. For cooler occasions, layer a sharp tailored blazer over the shoulders for a polished finish that doesn't compromise the dress's elegant lines. | Karen Millen Compact Viscose Corset Maxi Dress in Aubergine | Size 6 Colour: purple
