Journey D2699

Journey style D2699 is a two-piece ombre dress set: a plisse-pleated, round-neck midi dress under a matching sheer tonal-striped jacket with an oversized draped collar, an open front and long sleeves that fall the full length of the dress. The dip-dyed ombre runs light at the shoulder and deepens steadily toward the hem, and the fine accordion pleating in both pieces supplies all of the texture, so the set stays completely unbeaded and unembellished. It pulls on, has no zipper, and is cut in one size designed to fit 0 through 16, which makes it one of the easiest fits in the store for a mother of the bride or groom, a wedding guest, or a gala or charity evening. It arrives in five ombre colorways, Purple, Cobalt, Teal, Black and Taupe, and it is 100% polyester, machine washable and packs without creasing, which is why it travels so well to destination weddings and cruises. See it with the rest of the Journey evening collection and the other formal dress and jacket sets, or browse the clean, no-glitz gowns and formal dresses with sleeves if built-in coverage is what you are after.
