Rhea | Pleated Halter Gala Dress
Metallic Pleated Halter Maxi Dress for Galas and Holiday Nights
Rhea is a gala dress made to catch the light, with fine plissé pleats running from a gathered halter neckline down to a sweeping floor-length skirt. A sculpted, horizontally ruched band hugs the waist and hips, while a thigh-high slit and an open back add drama. Wear it as a formal evening dress for black-tie events, as a fall or winter wedding guest dress, or as a standout holiday dress for women who want to shine at seasonal parties.
Product Details
- Fabric look/feel: Lightweight metallic fabric with a liquid, high-shine finish in a green-gold tone and a fine pleated texture.
- Neckline: Gathered halter neckline that ties at the back of the neck, with slim metallic-tipped tie ends.
- Sleeves: Sleeveless, leaving the shoulders and arms bare.
- Cut/Fit: Draped bodice over a fitted, ruched dropped waistband that shapes the hips, flowing into a full pleated skirt.
- Back: Open back that dips down to the waistband.
- Length: Floor-length maxi with a high front leg slit.
- Style: Elegant formal gown for galas, weddings, cocktail evenings and holiday parties.
Styling Tips
- Let the metallic shine lead with strappy gold heels, sculptural gold cuffs and bold hoop earrings.
- For a winter wedding guest outfit, layer a tailored black blazer or a faux fur wrap over the shoulders.
- Keep the look sleek with a slicked-back ponytail and a structured box clutch for a gala or holiday dinner.
Care
Hand wash cold or use a gentle delicate cycle inside a laundry bag, then hang to dry. Avoid high heat to protect the pleats and shine, and always check the care label.
Size & Fit
The bodice drapes softly while the ruched waistband sits close through the waist and hips, so choose your size by your hip and waist fit. If you prefer a more relaxed feel through the middle, size up.
