The Cowl Neck Self-Tie Waist Midi Dress in Classic Black by Ann Taylor

$14.99
SizeXS

The ultimate little black dress — elevated, effortlessly sophisticated, and completely timeless. This beautifully fluid, figure-flattering midi dress brings a stunning draped cowl neckline, a self-tie waist belt, and dramatically fluttering sleeves together in one genuinely show-stopping piece that takes you seamlessly from a Tuesday board meeting to a Saturday evening out. The smooth, lightweight crepe in a deep, clean black has a beautifully fluid, elegant drape that flows and moves with breathtaking ease while maintaining a crisp, polished quality that keeps you looking completely put-together all day. The defining design details are the dramatic draped cowl neckline — soft, generous folds of fabric that pool beautifully at the chest — and the removable self-tie fabric belt that cinches and defines the waist before the skirt releases into a full, flowing A-line silhouette.
