Fit & sizing
Sizes run from S (AU 6-8) to 3XL (AU 24). If you fall between two sizes, take the larger one. Compare your own measurements with the chart below before you choose.
Why I chose this
I only add a piece to the shop if I'd happily wear it myself. I look for pieces that are easy to style and work for more than one occasion. If a piece wouldn't earn a spot in my own wardrobe, it doesn't go in the shop.
Nora
Some evenings deserve a dress you have thought about in advance. With black floral lace laid over a soft nude lining, a bateau neckline, sheer three-quarter sleeves and a wide waistband above a full A-line skirt, the Adeline™ was made for the nights you want to walk in already feeling right.
They are built for the photograph rather than for the four hours around it.
A fitted occasion dress holds its shape by holding you, so you spend the night adjusting it between the dinner and the dancing.
Adeline puts all the shaping in one wide waistband. Below it the A-line skirt falls away from the hips instead of following them, so you are not holding the line yourself.
Sleeveless is the default for evening dresses, and it leaves you choosing between a wrap that hides the dress and arms you keep thinking about.
The sheer lace sleeves finish at three-quarter length, so there is coverage from shoulder to forearm and the lace still reads as part of the dress.
✓ Black floral lace over a soft nude lining
✓ Bateau neckline that sits straight across the shoulders
✓ Sheer three-quarter lace sleeves
✓ Wide waistband that marks the waist in one clean band
✓ A-line midi skirt that falls to mid-calf
✓ One colourway, black on nude, in sizes S to 3XL
Adeline belongs at a wedding, a formal dinner or the party you accepted months ago. Our Spring Sale is on, so she is 70% off while it lasts. 🖤

Snapped this on my way out and ended up in it all day. The layers move when you walk and it's not heavy at all. Great with flat sandals.
Wore this out for lunch and felt properly put together without having tried too hard. The wrap ties where you actually want it, which not all of them do.
Three people asked about it the first time I wore it.
I practically live in this around the house and it's still good enough to wear out. Wide legs, and proper pockets, which is rarer than it should be.
Took it down to the coast and wore it two days running. It creases a bit if you're sitting in it for hours, but I'd pack it again.
Wasn't sure about grey and it's turned out to be the most useful thing I own. The ruffle at the neck lifts it.
Sent my sister a photo the minute I put it on. The blue is lovely on and the collar sits nicely open.
At my age I want something I can step into and be done with. This one does that, and the embroidery makes it look dressier than it really is. I've had it on three times in a fortnight.
We went out for dinner and I didn't want to take it off at the end of the night. The one shoulder stayed put, no tugging at it all evening.
The green's even better in person. I've worn the top by itself with jeans twice already.
The cut's flattering and the belt sits in the right place. I've got broader arms, so the sleeves are a bit snug on me.
Lovely set and the two pieces work well together. Trousers are a touch long on me so I'll get them taken up. No other complaints.
