A sleeveless bodycon floor-length dress with open cut-outs at both sides of the waist — the bodice above is a close-fitting mock-neck tank that covers the chest and back, then the fabric cuts away entirely at the midriff before rejoining in a ruched waist band below. The cut-outs are clean and intentional, exposing a horizontal band of skin on each side at the narrowest point. Below the ruched band, the skirt is a smooth column through the hip that eases into a slight flare at the floor.
The mock neck sits close at the throat and the bodice follows the body from neck to waist in the same jersey fabric — fitted without being compressed, the stretch doing the work. The ruched waist band gathers the fabric horizontally at the high hip, creating a concentrated texture at the transition point between the exposed midriff and the fitted skirt below. Small shoulder slits at the top of the armhole are a secondary detail — subtle against the more dramatic cut-outs at the waist.
Wear with strappy heeled sandals and minimal jewellery — the cut-outs and ruching carry the visual weight of the dress without assistance. A sleek updo or pulled-back style keeps the mock neck and shoulder detail visible. This is a dress for evening events, parties, and occasions where the brief is bold.

Size Guide
Please note: Our sizes are estimates and run smaller than standard AU. We recommend sizing up 1-2 from your usual to ensure the correct fit.

L (AU 6–8): Bust 79cm, Waist 72cm, Hip 94cm, Length 151cm
Bust, waist, and hip are full garment circumference measured flat.
The jersey fabric has stretch — fit accommodates a small range above
the listed measurements. Measurements run small; customers who
typically wear AU 10 and above will not be accommodated by this
size run. If you are between sizes, size up. Length is full garment
length from shoulder to hem. Manual measurements may vary by 1–2cm.
