Corset Mermaid Cocktail Dress for Holiday Parties and Evenings Out
Ilona is a cocktail dress for women built around a sculpted corset bodice and a fluid mermaid skirt. A wave of ruching sweeps across the waist and hip before the textured floral fabric falls into a dramatic high-low hem. It is made for holiday party season, winter weddings, and any evening that calls for something memorable.
Product Details
-
Fabric look/feel: Tonal textured floral fabric with a softly raised, fringed pattern that catches the light; slightly sheer at the hem.
-
Cut/Fit: Close-fitting through the bodice, waist and hip, flaring into a mermaid skirt from the knee.
-
Neckline: Low scooped square neckline framed by the corset bodice.
-
Sleeves: Sleeveless with wide, gathered straps that can sit on the shoulder or be eased off it.
-
Length: Midi at the front, sweeping longer at the back for a high-low finish.
-
Details/Finish: Visible corset seaming on the bodice and asymmetric ruching gathered at one hip.
-
Style: Elegant and figure-defining, ideal as a cocktail or evening dress.
Styling Tips
- Wear the pink version with strappy gold sandals, a sculptural cuff and a slim chain necklace for a holiday party.
- Pair black with pointed faux suede pumps and a tailored longline blazer over the shoulders for a winter wedding guest look.
- Add a faux fur stole and a small satin clutch for a Christmas party or New Year's Eve dinner.
Care
Hand wash cold or use a gentle delicate cycle inside a mesh bag. Do not tumble dry; hang or lay flat to dry and steam lightly to refresh. Always check the care label.
Size & Fit
This dress is designed to fit closely through the bodice and hips, as shown on the model. Choose your usual size for a sculpted fit; if you are between sizes or prefer a little more ease at the waist, size up.
