Off the Shoulder Evening Gown with Asymmetric Fold
This off the shoulder evening gown folds a wide panel of fabric across the collarbones on a diagonal, so the neckline sits lower on one shoulder than the other. Long sleeves, a column skirt that sweeps the floor, one colourway in wine red, and a size run from US 2 to US 26W. The maker gives the hollow-to-hem length as 147–155 cm (58–61 in), drafted for a 160–175 cm frame, so on most people it is full-length and intended for heels. The maker has not published a fibre composition for this style. Dry clean only, per the maker. Imported.

How to Wear It

About This Product
This listing is for one floor-length evening gown with an asymmetric fold neckline, long sleeves and a column skirt, in wine red, in US sizes 2–16 and US 16W–26W. The maker has not published a fibre composition for this style, and we will not print a figure we cannot stand behind. Email support@splashis.com before you order and we will request the composition sheet from the factory for you. What the maker does publish is the measurement chart: a hollow-to-hem of 147–155 cm (58–61 in) across the range, bust 83–104 cm on the straight sizes and 109–135 cm on the W sizes, drafted for a wearer of 160–175 cm. The maker specifies dry clean only. Imported. Eligible refund requests are accepted within 30 days of delivery, subject to our Return & Refund Policy.
Who It's For
Best for:

- Straight and plus sizes, US 2 to US 26W
What hollow-to-hem means and why it decides the hem
Hollow-to-hem is measured from the notch at the base of your throat straight down to the hem, and it is the single number that tells you where a long gown will finish on you. This one is drafted at 147–155 cm (58–61 in) for a wearer between 160 and 175 cm. Measure your own hollow-to-floor with the shoes you plan to wear, and compare. If your figure is smaller than the gown's, the extra length pools on the floor, which reads as a train from the front and as a trip hazard on stairs; if it is larger, the hem lifts and the column line breaks. Neither is a fault in the gown, and both are cheap to fix at a tailor — but it is much easier to know before the night than on it.
What to Pair It With
Bare shoulders are the point, so keep jewellery to earrings and skip a necklace. Heels, because the hem is drafted for them. A wrap you can drop, not a coat you have to keep on.
Care Instructions
Dry clean only, which is the maker's instruction and the one that governs. Between wears, hang it on a padded hanger rather than a wire one so the shoulder line keeps its shape, and steam it on the reverse instead of pressing the fold flat. Keep perfume and hairspray off the fabric; both mark a deep colour.
