Description: silver grey velvet turns this shirt dress into an easy statement. A neat lapel collar and buttoned front keep the top sharp, the long sleeves end in buttoned cuffs, and the skirt flares from the waist into a short a-line hem that catches the light.Some details: silver grey sheen: grey velvet shifts from pale silver to a deeper charcoal where the pile folds, so the dress looks dimensional without a print. Classic shirt details: the pointed collar, full button front and buttoned cuffs come straight from a shirt, which keeps the velvet from feeling too formal. Relaxed a-line cut: a relaxed body flares from the waist into a short hem, so the mini length stays comfortable when you sit, walk or dance. Layer it or wear it alone: wear it buttoned with boots, or open it as a long shirt over a tee and jeans, because the soft grey works with almost anything. Material: this dress is made of 95% polyester and 5% elastane velvet. The polyester creates the soft pile and the cool grey tone, while the elastane adds slight stretch so the a-line cut keeps its shape as you move.Care instructions: machine wash as the care label inside the dress directs. Keep to that label for anything beyond a regular machine wash, and the grey velvet stays as soft as it feels now.
