A keyhole cutout opens at the chest below a ruched mock neck, giving this velvet mini dress its statement front. Raglan seams gather softly at the shoulders before releasing into full length lantern sleeves that cinch at ruffled elastic cuffs. An empire waist leads into a heavily ruched skirt that wraps and gathers asymmetrically toward the hem. The velvet surface catches light with a soft sheen, making this a strong pick for evening plans.
