AKNVAS The Arlene Gown in Black | Strapless High-Low Taffeta Gown
Description
The Arlene Gown by AKNVAS in black is a strapless runway gown in tech taffeta, a crisp fabric with a soft, low sheen. The neckline dips to a deep plunge between two gathered cups. Below a dropped, gathered waist, the skirt gathers into full, sculpted folds. It is cut high in front and falls to a full-length train at the back. Inside, built-in bust cups and a corset support system with tightening straps hold the gown in place. It closes with an invisible zip.
Why We Love It
• A true runway piece with a dramatic high-low shape and train
• Crisp black taffeta that holds its sculpted volume
• A classic black that suits any formal event
• Internal corsetry and bust cups for a secure strapless fit
• By AKNVAS, a New York label known for sculptural, feminine design
How to Style It
• With black Mary Jane heels or strappy sandals to show off the high front hem
• With statement earrings and hair worn up for a gala or black-tie event
• With long black gloves for a more formal look
• With the AKNVAS Brigit Bag in chocolate, carried by the top handle
Fabric & Composition

Care
• Follow the care label on the garment; AKNVAS generally suggests dry cleaning and spot cleaning

• Steam lightly from a distance to release creases; do not press the gathers flat
• Lift the train on stairs and outdoors to protect the hem
