About this piece

The Girl Code champagne satin backless dress is a mini cut for occasions where the back of the room matters as much as the front. The bodice runs straight across the neckline and is held by fine shoulder straps, which is the restrained part. Behind, the dress opens completely, crossed by a set of straps that meet in a harness and tie in at the waist, so the fit adjusts to the body rather than to the size label. The skirt falls in two layers of fine ruffles, light enough to move on their own. Champagne satin sits somewhere between gold and nude depending on the light, which makes it read soft in daylight and sharp under it. It works for a wedding, a summer evening, or anywhere a plain slip dress would be too quiet. Available in sizes XS, S and M.

Questions

Can it be worn with a bra? The back is fully open and crossed with straps, so a conventional bra will show. Adhesive cups are the way with this one.

How does it fasten? The straps cross the back and tie in at the waist, so the fit adjusts to the body rather than to the size label.

What shade is champagne? Between gold and nude, shifting with the light rather than sitting flat.
