Amber is for anyone who wants more than a classic cocktail mini. The pleats are not decoration but the whole construction: they bring volume, movement and vertical lines that lengthen the silhouette.
Cut and silhouette
A loose, voluminous shape made entirely of pleats. Shoulder pads define the shoulder line and balance the very wide sleeves, so the silhouette looks modern and sharp rather than simply roomy.
Sleeves with slits
Concealed 35 cm zips sit in the seams of the long pleated sleeves. Zip them up for a full sleeve, or open them for a striking slit that shows the arm.
Neckline and belt
The deep V-neck fastens with fabric-covered buttons and loops down to the waist, so you choose how deep it goes. The matching belt repeats the buttons: at the waist it defines your proportions, on the hips it gives a looser, fashion-forward line.
Fabric and colours
The pleated fabric (92% polyester, 8% elastane) holds its pleats, has a little stretch and does not crease. Black Amber is minimalist and timeless; ripe cherry brings out the pleat texture and looks beautiful in autumn and winter.
How to wear it and when
With pumps, over-the-knee boots or heeled sandals and minimal jewellery, since the dress is the statement. For birthdays, receptions, dinners, office parties, New Year’s Eve, fashion events and the theatre.
Care
Gentle hand wash in cool water or dry clean. Do not iron the pleats: dry on a hanger and refresh with a steamer if needed.
Follow a few simple rules and your pleats will keep their shape and crisp folds for years.
Do
- Steam, keeping the nozzle away from the fabric
- Dry clean or gently hand wash in cool water
- Dry naturally, hanging upright on a hanger
- Store on a hanger, in a garment bag for longer periods
Don’t
- Iron
- Soak the garment
- Dry flat
- Tumble dry
After unpacking, hang the garment on a hanger and leave it overnight or for 24 hours. Most creases from packing will smooth out on their own.

The Amber pleated mini dress: festive without sequins or shine, while the wide sleeves and shoulder pads give it a designer feel. Black is versatile; ripe cherry is for a bolder evening.
How do you style a loose pleated dress?
Wear it loose, belted at the waist or belted low on the hips. You can also adjust the neckline depth with the buttons and open the sleeve slits.

Yes. Concealed 35 cm zips sit in the sleeve seams: open them for a slit or keep them closed for a full sleeve.
