Black Mikado Sheath Dress with Gold Beading

The Black Mikado Sheath Dress with Gold Beading is a demi-couture piece by Joseph Ejiro, available to pre-order.

A black sky with a scatter of gold. This cocktail sheath is crisp and fitted, and then a sweep of gold beadwork runs across the front like a constellation. It is the dress for dinners, openings and evenings when a little black dress needs a little more.

A sleeveless black mikado sheath is fitted close through the body and cut to just below the knee. Across the front, gold beadwork sweeps diagonally from the shoulder to the hip in a branching, frond-like pattern. At the back, a line of gold studs runs down the centre seam to a slit at the hem, so the detail continues all the way around.

Fabric

The dress is cut in mikado, a dense, crisp fabric with a subtle sheen that holds structured shapes beautifully.

Care

Dry clean only. Mikado can water-mark and lose its crisp structure in water, so a specialist dry cleaner is the safest choice. Avoid rubbing over crystals, beading and hardware; spot clean around them gently if needed. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Press mikado on the reverse with a dry iron on a low setting and a pressing cloth. Avoid steam directly on the face. Store on a padded hanger in a breathable cotton garment bag, away from direct sunlight.

Size and fit

Available in US sizes 2 to 24. Please see the size chart on this page for body measurements before ordering.
