{"product_id":"velvet-mini-dress-with-lace-sleeves","title":"Velvet Mini Dress with Lace Sleeves","description":"\u003cp\u003eI appreciate how this dress balances texture and structure. The velvet body provides a rich, deep base, while the lace sleeves offer just enough transparency to keep the look light and modern. It is that rare piece that feels dressed up without being uncomfortable. I find the fit is particularly flattering around the shoulders, where the lace sits smoothly against the skin. It is a reliable go-to when you need a polished outfit that does not require much styling effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFabric and composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dress is crafted from high-quality polyester, chosen for its durability and ability to maintain its shape over time. The velvet finish gives the fabric a subtle sheen and a soft, plush texture that feels comfortable against the skin. The lace sleeves are constructed with a delicate weave that remains resilient while providing a sophisticated, airy contrast to the denser velvet body. The fabric is designed to drape well, ensuring a clean silhouette that moves with you throughout the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFit and sizing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis mini dress is cut for a contemporary, tailored fit that follows the natural lines of the body without feeling restrictive. It hits above the knee, offering a modern proportion. We recommend choosing your standard US size for the intended fit. If you prefer a slightly more relaxed silhouette or plan to layer it, you may consider sizing up. Please refer to our size guide to find your exact measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStyling tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a classic evening look, pair this dress with pointed-toe pumps and a minimalist clutch. The texture of the velvet makes it an excellent choice for fall dinners or holiday events. If you want to lean into a more edgy aesthetic, style it with opaque pantyhose and ankle boots. Keep accessories simple to let the lace detail on the sleeves stand out as the focal point of your outfit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo maintain the quality of the velvet and the integrity of the lace, we recommend hand washing in cool water. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric. Lay the dress flat to dry in a shaded area to prevent fading. If necessary, use a cool iron or steamer on the reverse side of the velvet only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInternational Size Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUK\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUS\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6-8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e38-40\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Measure\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChest\/Bust\u003c\/strong\u003e — measure around the fullest part, keeping the tape level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaist\u003c\/strong\u003e — measure around the narrowest part of the natural waistline.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHips\u003c\/strong\u003e — measure around the fullest part, roughly 20 cm below the waist.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — measure from the highest point of the shoulder straight down.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure over light clothing and keep the tape snug but not tight.
