Design Details and Benefits
- Sequin motif placed at the hip rather than centred on the bodice - draws the eye down the body instead of stopping at the neckline
- Cowl drape softens the plunge at the bust - keeps the neckline from reading as a flat, hard V
Placing the sequin motif at the hip is what stops this from reading as one more all-over sequin dress. Most sequin pieces cover the whole surface, so the eye has nowhere in particular to land and the shine reads as generic. Setting a single sunburst motif low on the hip gives the dress one clear focal point instead of a wall of sparkle. Worth knowing before you order: the halter neckline plunges low and the back is cut for a halter tie, so this leans towards a going-out dress rather than an everyday one.
