Black Sequin Fit and Flare Dress

This black sequin fit and flare dress is built around a fitted bodice that gives way to a full, flared skirt, with long sleeves and a simple round neck. At 49 to 51 in (125 to 130 cm) long, it reaches mid-calf to ankle depending on your height, a long tea length that feels formal without trailing on the floor.

Why the Fit and Flare Dress Shape Works in Black

In black, the cut does the talking. The close bodice defines the waist and the skirt swings with every step, so the dress looks graceful on a theatre staircase and lively on a dance floor. The sequins are sewn onto a knit backing, which gives the bodice a little give compared with rigid sequin fabrics. Sleeves suit a December wedding.

Measuring for the Black Fit and Flare Dress

Start with your waist, since the bodice is fitted there. Our chart goes from S, with a 31.5 in (80 cm) bust and 27.6 in (70 cm) waist, to 3XL, with a 42.5 in (108 cm) bust and 38.6 in (98 cm) waist; XXL and XXXL on this page match 2XL and 3XL on the chart in the photos. Sleeves grow from 21.7 to 23.6 in (55 to 60 cm) across the sizes.

Black Sequin Fit and Flare Dress FAQ

Is black sequin appropriate for a wedding guest?

For an evening or winter wedding, yes. Brighten it with gold-tone jewelry or a jewel-colored clutch so it reads festive rather than somber.

What shoes suit a mid-calf hem?

Pointed pumps or T-strap heels show the ankle and balance the full skirt. Chunky boots tend to cut the line.

Can I wash it at home?

Hand wash it inside out in cool water and dry it flat, or take it to a dry cleaner used to sequins.
