Signature Alexis Mabille: The Dress Every Woman Should Own


Alexis Mabille's gown made such an impact on the runway during couture fashion week and encapsulates the designer's penchant for mixing masculine and feminine codes.




This tuxedo-inspired piece is cut from satin-piqué with an off-the-shoulder neckline and full skirt that's pleated for extra volume. The sweetheart bodice is accented with lustrous lapels and internally boned for structure. Make the most of the high-low hem and showcase your favourite heels.

Alexis Mabille's skirt is defined by the signature knotted sash that creates the illusion of a pair of sleeves around the waist. Made from floral-print organza and silk, this maxi style is left unlined so the voluminous silhouette feels easy to move in. Style yours with the brand's top for a spring gala or wedding.
