Embossed Velvet Dress for Winter Formal and Holiday Parties
Meet Melina, a velvet dress for women with a raised floral texture that catches the light every time you move. A clean square neckline and fitted bodice open into a full A-line skirt that swings just below the calf. It is an easy choice for a winter formal, a holiday party, a gala or a Christmas dinner with family.
Product Details
-
Fabric look/feel: Plush velvet with an embossed floral and scroll pattern that creates tone-on-tone depth.
-
Neckline: Wide square neckline that frames the collarbones and suits a delicate necklace.
-
Sleeves: Slim, gently ruched sleeves that follow the arm.
-
Cut/Fit: Fitted through the bodice with a defined waist seam, then flaring into a full A-line skirt.
-
Length: Midi length that falls between mid-calf and ankle.
-
Style: Elegant, vintage-inspired evening dress in rich jewel tones.
Styling Tips
- Add black pointed pumps, a small embellished clutch and fine gold jewelry for a holiday party.
- Pair with sleek knee-high boots and a tailored wool-blend coat for winter dinners and evenings out.
- Layer a cropped black blazer over the top and finish with sheer tights for a polished office celebration.
Care
Gentle cold hand wash or a delicate machine cycle inside out. Do not wring; reshape and dry flat. Steam from the reverse side rather than ironing to protect the velvet pile, and always check the care label.
Size & Fit
The bodice and sleeves sit close to the body while the skirt is generous and roomy. Choose your usual size for a neat fit at the waist; if you are between sizes or prefer more ease through the bust and arms, size up.
