empire waistline mini dress Black SHIRRED WAIST SHORT SLEEVE VD33795 Hand wash warm Cotton Lace Trim Ivory Empire

The dress is designed with a flattering fit around the waist and ties in the back, accentuating the silhouette

What I love about these is they have a unique elastic closure system which means you can get in and out of them more easily than other Chelseas

But is her choice of such a bombshell Versace number just days before the Met Gala a sign of whats to come on the steps of the Met

Sleeveless, short-sleeve, flutter-sleeve, cape-sleeve, illusion-sleeve, and lightweight lace-sleeve dresses can all work

The high waist and full-length skirt create a soft, elongated silhouette that works well for summer outings, garden parties, and vacation wear

Avoid delicate fabrics that snag easily
