Noir Enchantment – Oscars 2016 Red-Carpet Inspiration
Make a statement in this black lace and satin ball gown, inspired by Charlotte Riley’s sultry Oscars 2016 look. The intricate sheer-lace bodice and full satin skirt blend romance with drama, creating a red-carpet–ready silhouette that’s equal parts elegant and bold.
- Plunging V-Neckline – A daring V frames the décolletage, softened by delicate scalloped lace edges for a romantic touch.
- All-Over Sheer Lace Bodice – Intricate floral lace on fitted long sleeves and torso offers subtle coverage with peek-a-boo allure.
- Structured Satin Waistband – Cinches the natural waist to define an hourglass shape before flowing into the skirt.
- Voluminous Ball Gown Skirt – Luxe satin panels cascade to the floor in dramatic fullness, perfect for making a grand entrance.
- Invisible Back Zip & Built-In Cups – Ensure a seamless finish and comfortable support all evening long.
Pair with statement chandelier earrings, a sleek low bun, and pointed pumps to channel Charlotte’s modern-gothic glamour, or soften with loose waves and a bold red lip for classic Hollywood allure. Custom sizing and alternate hues (emerald, midnight navy, ivory) available—contact our atelier to craft your own noir enchantment.

The below is just a guide. We recommend that whenever possible you get a qualified seamstress to measure your dress size. Always have someone else take the measurements—self-measuring is often inaccurate. Measure with undergarments similar to those you will wear with your dress; do not measure over other clothing.
For standard sizes, compare your measurements with the Size Chart on this product page. For products offering Custom Size, enter your own measurements in the product options and include cm or inches.
Bust
- This is not your bra size.
- Wear an unpadded bra; arms relaxed at your sides.
- Measure around the fullest part of your bust.
Waist
- Find your natural waist (smallest part).
- Usually about 1 in. above the belly button.
- Keep the tape slightly loose for comfort.
Hips
- Measure the widest part of the hips.
- Usually about 7 in. below the natural waist.
- Ensure the tape passes across both hipbones.
Height & Hollow to Floor
- Stand straight with feet together.
- Height: head top to floor (barefoot).
- Hollow to Floor: from the hollow at the base of the neck straight down to the floor; measure with your shoes on if you will wear heels.
