Royal Blue Satin High-Low Midi Dress with Draped Waist and Open Back

How to measure

Use these steps to measure your body for the best fit or to measure a garment laid flat. Always keep the tape measure level and snug but not tight. Measure over light undergarments for accuracy.

To choose your size (body measurements)

1. Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
2. Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waist (where your body bends). For this dress the draped waist seam sits slightly above the natural hip—if you prefer a looser fit, allow an extra 1–2 inches/2–5 cm.
3. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks with feet together.
4. Front length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (near the neck) down to the front hem. The high-low cut means the front will typically fall around mid-calf depending on your height.
5. Back length: Measure from the nape of the neck (center back) down to the longest point of the hem to account for the high-low silhouette and open-back design.

To measure the garment (flat measurement)

1. Lay the dress flat on a smooth surface with seams aligned.
2. Chest: Measure across the garment from one underarm seam to the other and double that number for the full circumference.
3. Waist: Measure across at the draped waist seam and double for circumference. Note that draping adds ease, so the garment measurement will sit more relaxed than a fitted waist measurement.
4. Hem: Measure the front and back hem lengths from the respective center points to get the high-low drop.
5. Straps & open back: Measure strap length from the shoulder seam to the back attachment; adjustable straps can change how the open back sits.

Materials

Primary fabric: Satin (polyester satin) — a smooth, glossy surface that gives the dress its luxurious shine and fluid drape. Lining: lightweight polyester lining for comfort and opacity. Hardware: invisible zipper at center back and small hook or clasp at the top of the open-back closure.

Properties:

• Silky sheen and excellent drape — ideal for evening and formal looks.
• Polyester satin holds color well (deep royal blue) and resists wrinkles more than many natural silks, but it is delicate to abrasion and snagging.
• Lightweight lining ensures the skirt skims the body without clinging to hosiery.

Note: Exact fiber percentages and hardware details are on the garment care label; if you need precise fiber content for allergies, please check the label or product spec sheet.

Model

Sample model info (for fit reference):

• Height: 5'9" (175 cm)
• Model measurements: Bust 34" / Waist 24" / Hips 35" (86 / 61 / 89 cm)
• Wearing size: Small (S) — size shown to illustrate drape and high-low length.

If you are between sizes or prefer more ease at the waist because of the drape, consider sizing up for extra comfort.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Recommended: Professional dry clean for best color, sheen and drape preservation.
• If washing at home: hand wash cold with a gentle detergent. Do not bleach.
• Do not wring or twist. Gently squeeze out excess water and reshape while damp.
• Air dry by hanging on a padded hanger or lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
• If ironing is needed, turn the garment inside out and use a low-heat iron or steam at a safe distance. Place a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to avoid shine marks.
• Avoid contact with rough surfaces, jewelry or bags that can cause snags; store hanging in a breathable garment bag when possible.

Style tips

• Footwear: pair with strappy metallic sandals (silver or gold) or classic nude heels. A low block heel also complements the high-low hem while keeping the look modern.
• Jewelry: delicate drop earrings or a subtle pendant keep focus on the open back and neckline; for a bolder look, choose statement earrings and minimal necklace.
• Outerwear: a cropped blazer, bolero or fitted leather jacket works well without hiding the draped waist; for formal events a faux-fur shrug adds glamour.
• Belting: add a slim metallic or satin belt at the waist seam to accentuate shape if you prefer more definition.
• Hair: an updo or swept-to-one-side hairstyle showcases the open-back detail; soft waves keep the look romantic.
• Occasions: ideal for weddings, cocktail parties, holiday evenings, or any event where a polished, feminine silhouette is desired.
