Manhattan One Shoulder Gown | Marcella

Elegance meets edge. Welcome to the iconic silhouette that put our brand on the map. Our Manhattan One Shoulder Gown is the architecturally minded answer to every occasion that calls for a black one shoulder dress with real presence. A one shoulder black dress with a long sleeve and open back, she is defined by a halter neckline that travels into the single sleeve and frames a sculpted back in a silhouette that is at once structural and fluid. Fashioned from our structured, mid-stretch European Ponte (also known as Punto di Roma), she holds her shape through a cocktail reception, a city venue wedding, a black-tie evening, or any occasion where the dress is expected to do the talking. The fitted gown length falls approximately 53 inches (134 cm), making her a black one shoulder maxi dress with a mermaid-like cascade from hip to floor. Her convertible, asymmetric construction gives you the option to style the drape to your own proportion. This is an ethically made black cocktail dress and black one shoulder gown in one: NYC-designed with the sculptural restraint of a minimalist occasion dress, handcrafted in Europe with living-wage production standards. She is the investment-grade piece your capsule wardrobe is built around, equally at home at a city venue wedding as she is at a cocktail event or formal dinner. Need help putting her on?
