Lace Appliqué Short A-Line Cocktail Dress

Flirty and refined, this cocktail dress features couture-style lace appliqué over a sculpting bodice and a twirl-ready short A-line skirt. Designed to define the waist and move beautifully, it’s an effortless choice for parties, weddings, and chic nights out.

Key Features

Lace appliqué placed over the bodice (and lightly on the skirt) for dimensional texture.
Short A-line silhouette that flatters the waist and offers easy movement.
Defined waist seam for a smooth, hourglass shape.
Concealed back zipper for a seamless finish.

Design Notes

Lightly structured bodice with soft lining for comfortable support.
Sleek seaming through the waist keeps the profile tailored and refined.
Stabilized neckline/straps (on select styles) for confident, all-evening wear.

Hollow to hem is measured from the hollow at the base of the neck to the hem. Length and height are reference values from the standard chart, not a height requirement for every wearer or the finished length of every style.

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.

For short dresses not reaching the floor, measure to the actual hemline of the dress.
