What qualities would you consider important in a little black dress? Cecilie Bahnsen’s interpretation is lustrous and soft to touch in velvet. Actually, it’s not really little after all thanks to the designer’s signature puff sleeves and generous silhouette. The prim bow tied neckline is the perfect complement to the trapeze like skirt that rises and falls from front to back. Instead of heels, why not slip into something a little more comfortable like loafers?Cecilie Bahnsen velvet dressSlips onRound neck with self tie fastening, short balloon sleeves, oversized, ruched detailing, seam pocket at sides, curved front hem, fully lined82% viscose, 18% silk; 100% cotton; 100% silkDry cleanTrue to sizeSize 8: Length 39"Model is 5ft 10" and wears a size 8
