Burnout velvet halter mini in blue green
$39.99
Check price & buyBurnout velvet is the point here: the pile is etched away in a floral pattern, so the colour shifts between matte and sheen as the light moves over it. Blue green, halter neck, bare shoulders, a smocked waist, a ruffled hem on an A-line mini, and a single button at the back. There is elastane in the mix, so the fabric gives rather than holding you rigid through an evening.

What the burnout velvet halter mini actually does
Burnout velvet does in one fabric what most party dresses need sequins for.
1
Floral worked into the pile
Rather than printing a pattern on top, the velvet is burned out so the design appears as thinner, smoother areas against the remaining pile. The effect is tonal, which means the dress carries a pattern without any part of it reading as busy.
2
Halter neckline, back button
The halter carries the weight of the dress at the neck and leaves the shoulders and upper back open. One button closes it behind, so there is no long zip to negotiate alone in a hotel room.
3
Smocked waist with give
The waist is smocked rather than seamed, so it holds a shape without pressing and stretches over the hips on the way on. With elastane in the velvet, the dress recovers after a long night rather than staying stretched.
Fit, honestly
Sleeveless halter with a smocked waist and a back button closure; the A-line skirt is short and finished with a ruffle. Side pockets are included. Hand wash cold with a mild detergent, no bleach, no tumble drying, and keep the iron cool. Still new to the catalogue, with few reviews to read.
