About this product
One shoulder. Open back. Floor-length metallic lurex. The Manhattan Metallic One Shoulder Gown is Marcella's signature silhouette reinterpreted in a shimmering, high-stretch fabric that moves with the body and holds its shape through every hour of the night.
She opens with a halter neckline that transitions into a fitted long sleeve on one side, leaving the opposite shoulder bare. The back is fully open, framed by clean structural lines rather than decorative detail. The fitted maxi silhouette skims the body from shoulder to floor, with a total center-back length of approximately 50" (128 cm) and a sleeve length of approximately 30" (76.5 cm). The fabric is a metallic jersey lurex (95% Polyester, 5% Spandex) with genuine four-way stretch, meaning the gown conforms to your proportions without pulling or gaping at the seams.
A note on fit: this version runs larger than the ponte Manhattan. Reviewers who typically wear an XL in the structured version found the M fit best here. Size up if you are between sizes; size down if you prefer a closer, more body-skimming result. Yada is 5'9" (175 cm) and wears size XS. Model measurements: Bust 31" (79 cm), Waist 24" (61 cm), Hip 34" (86 cm).
The metallic lurex reads onyx in lower light and catches the room in direct light, making it an occasion dress that works equally well at a black-tie gala, a formal wedding, a cocktail reception, or any event where a minimalist evening gown with genuine edge is the right call. This is an edgy minimalist dress designed in New York and handcrafted in Europe: the NYC design perspective gives it its architectural restraint; the European production gives it its finish.
Also available in structured European ponte for a matte, sculpted alternative.
