This one does the work for you. The open back draws attention exactly where you want it, while the halter tie keeps everything secure so you can actually move, dance, and enjoy yourself. The floor-grazing length adds a touch of drama that a mini simply can't match - and the lace detail stops it from ever feeling plain. Wear it, own the room. ## Design Details - **Halter neckline with tie fastening** - adjustable at the neck so you get the fit right for your body, not a generic one-size-fits-all approach - **Deep backless cut** - the centrepiece of this dress; it creates a striking rear profile that works beautifully in photos and in person - **Lace and tulle detailing** - adds texture and visual interest without making the dress feel overly fussy or busy - **Sleeveless construction** - keeps things minimal up top, letting the backless detail lead - **Maxi length sheath silhouette** - elongating and slim-fitting from shoulder to hem ## Fit, Feel & Fabric This dress is cut slim throughout, so it follows your shape closely from the bust to the floor. The polyester fabric has a smooth hand feel with structured lace panelling at key points. The halter tie is adjustable, which helps you manage fit across the bust. If you're between sizes, sizing up is worth considering for ease of movement, particularly given the fitted maxi length. ## Styling & Occasion This is a dress built for occasions that deserve a proper outfit. Think summer rooftop parties, club nights where you want to arrive looking sharp, or any event where a little drama is welcome. Pair it with strappy heeled sandals and keep jewellery minimal - the back speaks for itself. A sleek updo will show off the halter and backless detail to full effect.

If you're between sizes or prefer a little more room to move, we'd suggest sizing up. Check the size guide on this page for specific measurements. **What is the dress made from?** It's made from polyester with lace and tulle detailing at key panels. The main fabric is smooth and structured, while the lace adds texture without being itchy or delicate to wear. **Is there any built-in support or lining?** The dress features a tie halter fastening that provides adjustable support at the bust. There is no underwire. For added confidence, a stick-on bra is a popular choice with backless styles like this one. **Is the backless cut fully open or partially covered?** The back is deeply open - this is a statement backless design rather than a subtle cut-out. The halter tie creates the neckline structure, and the back is left largely bare as the key design feature. **What shoes work best with a maxi bodycon dress?** Strappy heeled sandals or barely-there heels work brilliantly - they give you height without competing with the dress. Avoid bulky footwear, which can interrupt the sleek, elongated line of a fitted maxi. **What are the delivery and returns options?** We offer free UK delivery.
