Check price & buyRust, and only rust. This is knit velvet with a burnout pattern: stretchy, soft, and described as resistant to creasing, which is not a given in velvet. The neckline is a deep V, the sleeves are short flutters, the waist is elastic and ruched high under the bust, and the A-line skirt runs to the floor with a split up one side. Among the velvet dresses in this catalogue it is the most openly glamorous shape.

Velvet that stretches and a skirt with a split: this is for the evening half of the invitation.
Burnout velvet carries its pattern in the pile itself, so the design shifts with the light rather than sitting on top as a print. In rust that reads warm under evening lighting and much quieter in daylight.
Two openings carry the dress: a deep V at the neck and a split running high up one side of the skirt. Simplee points it at galas, proms and nights out, and the cut says the same thing before the listing does.
The high waist is elastic and ruched, so it gathers rather than fastens, and the knit underneath stretches. Between the two there is nothing to zip, which keeps a floor-length dress straightforward to get into.
Sizes run S through XL, with S at 4-6, M at 8-10, L at 12 and XL at 14. Simplee calls it true to size and advises sizing down between sizes. Wash cold and avoid pulling at the pile.
