Striking Resort 2019 Alex Perry "Abigail" Brilliant Orange Full Length Capes Sleeve Dress w Open Back

  • The twin of this dress in black was presented for the Resort 2019 Alex Perry collection.
  • It was made under the creative Direction of Alex Perry.
  • Alexandros Pertsinidis is an Australian fashion designer who launched the Alex Perry label in 1992. His work has been featured on numerous the covers worldwide since then and is a favorite on the red carpet. It's been worn by celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, Rita Ora, Katy Perry, Lupita Nyong and countless others.
  • The twin of this dress was seen on the red carpet on Britt Lower and Dina Amer.
  • The dress does not have a single unnecessary seam. It really shows how sometimes absolute minimalism is best.
  • The dress is made from a combination of a brilliant orange crepe through the body with a matte satin crepe for those incredible sleeves. The fabric choice has a beautiful drape. This is what lets it move so beautifully over the body once it is on.
  • It is constructed so that it drapes and skims over the body perfectly. The skirt falls to the floor in a sweeping expanse of fabric. When you stand still it looks more like a sleek column but when you move you realize how much fabric is in there as it billows out behind you.
  • The bodice drapes softly over you at the front and the shoulders are padded inside so that they have a defined and shaped silhouette. Caped sleeves fall all the way to the floor to create this elegant and dramatic feeling over your arms.
  • The fabric has enough weight that it stays in place when you are standing still but when you move you get a billowing effect around you.
  • The waist has a touch of stretch so the dress is easy to fit and should work on a range of sizes.
  • At the back there is a full cut out that leaves your entire back bare. This unexpected expanse of skin when you turn around is amazing.
  • The inner part of the front bodice is lined in an orange matte satin with extra define seaming to help shape the bodice. The skirt has an inner underlay skirt in the same fabric and the sleeves are unlined. It closes with a hidden set zipper at the back waist and buttons at the back of the neck.  It comes with its original hang tag attached and was never worn.
