Design Details and Benefits
- Front zipper as the neckline - one closure does the opening instead of a hidden zip at the back
- Cold-shoulder sleeves - you get a short sleeve and an open shoulder in the same cut
- Close bodycon through the hip - the leather look stays sharp rather than gathering
The zip is the whole point. A plain high-neck mini in this fabric would look severe; opening it down the front gives you control over the plunge and a vertical line that lengthens the body. The cold-shoulder cut is the second move - it stops the sleeves reading as a jacket. Worth knowing: this is a close mini with a deep front opening, not a modest day dress. If you want a covered chest or a midi hem, look elsewhere. Coverage is low at the thigh and at the zip.
