Homecoming Dresses

Floral lace laid over tulle gives a close-cut dress texture it would not otherwise have — the pattern sits slightly proud of the surface. A corset bodice holds the waist and a slit gives the leg somewhere to go. Product Details Silhouette Bodycon Neckline...

The base fabric is a metallic glitter knit, so the dress has shine before a single bead is added — the beadwork then sits on top and catches light at a different angle. A bow at the waist keeps it from being purely about...

Beading catches the light; chiffon ruffles catch the air. Putting both on the same dress means it works standing still for photographs and moving on a dance floor, which is more than most short dresses manage. Lacing at the back sets the fit. Product...

A square neckline changes the whole balance of a dress — it draws a straight line across the collarbone instead of curving with it, which reads modern rather than sweet. Set against grey jacquard florals, the effect is closer to tailoring than to party...

This is the plainest of the grey jacquards and the most wearable because of it — no bow, no extra detail, just a structured strapless bodice and a skirt that moves. The woven florals supply all the texture the dress needs. Product Details Silhouette...

Yellow is the colour most people talk themselves out of, and a structured corset is what makes it wearable — the shape is disciplined enough to carry a bright shade without tipping into costume. Product Details Silhouette Bodycon Neckline Strapless over a corset bodice...

Grey is the most underrated colour in this whole category — it photographs beautifully under warm lighting and makes every other colour near it look considered. The jacquard weave gives the florals depth, and a bow at the waist keeps it from turning severe....

Desert rose is a muted, dusty shade that photographs far better than a clean pink — it holds its colour under artificial light instead of washing out. Small sleeves off the shoulder and a bow are the only detail it needs. Product Details Silhouette...

Flowers built out of fabric and applied one at a time, so the skirt has actual relief rather than a printed pattern. A halter neck keeps the shoulders bare and the blooms unobstructed. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Halter neck Length Short / mini...

A square neckline draws a straight line where most short dresses curve, and against white beaded lace that geometry reads modern rather than bridal. Beadwork catches light through the lace as you move. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Square neck Length Short / mini...

Square neckline, corset bodice, beaded satin — three fairly classical ideas that together produce something more architectural than sweet. The waist is held where the lacing sets it, not where the seam falls. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Square neck over a corset bodice...

Organza holds a shape that tulle only suggests, so the 3D flowers here sit crisply rather than softly. Pink blooms on a white ground, with cap sleeves falling off the shoulder and a corset holding the waist. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Off the...

The cape is the whole reason to choose this — on, it reads formal and covered; off, it is a clean sequinned mini. Two looks from one dress, without changing anything underneath. Product Details Silhouette Bodycon with a detachable cape Neckline Strapless, straight across...

White lace is unforgiving — there is nowhere for a badly cut dress to hide, and nothing distracts from the line. This one keeps it simple: strapless, a defined waist, a bow, and the lace doing everything else. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Strapless,...

A halter and a corset together give you support from two directions, which is why this shape holds through a whole evening. Beaded floral appliqués cover the satin and catch light at the neckline first. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Halter neck over a...

Sky blue is the shade that reads fresh in photographs without washing anyone out, and lace laid over tulle gives it enough texture to hold up close. The halter covers the front and leaves the shoulders completely bare — a cleaner solution than straps....

Sequins on satin rather than mesh means the shine has a solid surface behind it, so the colour stays saturated instead of going translucent. A sweetheart corset holds the waist and the skirt flares from there. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Sweetheart, strapless, over...

Lace, tulle and hand-applied flowers stacked on one dress could easily become too much — keeping it entirely in white is what holds it together. The corset bodice supplies the discipline underneath. Product Details Silhouette A-line Neckline Sweetheart over a corset bodice Length Short...

Olive is an unusual base for sequins and a very effective one — the muted green dulls the shine just enough that it reads expensive rather than loud. Ruffled tiers give the skirt movement below a sweetheart bodice. Product Details Silhouette A-line with a...

Pink flowers on white tulle, cut strapless, then stacked into ruffles from the waist down. It is the most straightforwardly pretty dress in the range and makes no apology for it. Lacing at the back means the fit is yours to set. Product Details...
