ALAIA Pointed-hem velvet midi dress in in 3D sculpting knit - black

From the same stretch velvet as Alaïa's bodycon dresses, this one is cut for movement. A high funnel neck and sleeveless bodice fit close to the hip, where godets break into a skirt of deep flounces that drop to handkerchief points. The pile catches the light unevenly as it moves, which is the reason to cut velvet this way.
