Description

The Jody Lace A-Line Dress in Bordeaux is a deep wine knee-length A-line dress with long sheer sleeves, lace at the neckline, cuffs, and hem, and a soft metallic sheen woven into the cloth. It is made for the woman who has a fall or winter evening ahead of her, a wedding, a gala, an anniversary dinner, and wants to stand, sit, and dance through all of it without once adjusting a sleeve. The A-line skirt flatters across body types and decades, and the long sleeves keep their coverage from the first toast to the last song.

Fabric
84% botanical weave, 10% metallic fibers, 6% elastane. The metallic fibers catch light as a quiet sheen rather than a sparkle, which gives the bordeaux depth under warm evening lighting and in photographs. Lace runs along the neckline, the cuffs, and the hemline. The long sleeves are sheer with lace at the wrist. The elastane gives the dress shape recovery across a full evening. Designed and crafted in Europe as part of Luna Fashion House. Featured at OC Fashion Week 2026, Catalina Island runway.

Fit
True to size, with a softly structured bodice and a defined natural waist. The A-line skirt falls from the waist with enough volume for ease and enough structure to hold its line. The long sheer sleeves fit true to arm measurement. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer bodice line or the larger for more ease through the skirt. Measurements are in the Luna sizing guide. The model is 5 foot 9 inches and wears size 2. The length is 39” from the back of the neck to the hem on a size 2.

Styling
For the mother of the bride at a fall or winter wedding, carry the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Bordeaux for tonal coordination and wear gold drop earrings.
For a black tie wedding or a gala reception, switch to the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Black and earrings at a larger scale.
For a winter arrival, the Lucy Wool Coat with Faux Fur Collar in Black or the Selina Wool Cape in Black layers cleanly over the long sleeves.
For a holiday gala or a milestone celebration, the Julia Evening Clutch Bag in Yellow adds an unexpected note of color.
Gold and rose gold read warmer with bordeaux than silver.

Care
Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Air dry. Steam or iron on low if needed. Spot clean small marks gently with cold water. Do not bleach. Store on a broad padded hanger to keep the A-line shape.

The coat over it

The Jody A-line in deep burgundy has a flared skirt that ends at or just above the knee. The Black Wool Coat with Faux Fur Collar, Lucy flares from princess seams, so it clears that skirt. It is also an inch longer than the dress on a size 2, and it costs $910. In daytime, try the Gray Herringbone Wool Wrap Coat, Nicole ($825), which is 7 inches longer than the dress.

Is the Jody A-Line true to size?
Yes. The fit runs true to size with a defined waist and a forgiving A-line skirt. For a closer line through the bodice, size down one.
What occasions is this dress best suited for?
Fall and winter weddings, holiday galas, anniversary dinners, engagement parties, symphony evenings, Valentine's Day dinners, and cocktail receptions. The bordeaux and the lace read as evening, particularly in the colder months and in warm-lit rooms.
Is this dress appropriate for a fall or winter wedding as a guest?
Yes. Bordeaux is a widely recommended color for fall and winter wedding guests, especially at evening receptions, and it photographs well in candlelit and warm indoor venues. The long sleeves give the coverage a cooler-season wedding calls for, and the knee length with lace trim meets traditional wedding guest etiquette.
Is this appropriate as a mother of the bride dress?
Yes, particularly for a fall or winter wedding. The long sleeves give the coverage mother of the bride attire calls for, and bordeaux is widely accepted in fall and winter bridal palettes. The A-line flatters across body types and decades, and the lace trim reads as refined rather than matronly.
What makes the A-line silhouette flattering?
The A-line follows the body through the bodice and waist, then flares gently below the waist. That gives an hourglass line to a figure that carries weight at the hips or thighs, defines the waist on a straight figure, and adds softness to an athletic build. It is one of the most forgiving dress shapes in European tailoring.
What is the difference between bordeaux and burgundy?
Bordeaux is a deeper, slightly more blue-toned wine red. Burgundy pulls warmer, with more red in it. Both suit evening occasions. The Jody bordeaux is set to flatter a range of skin tones without tipping too cool or too warm.
Can this dress work for Valentine's Day?
Yes. Bordeaux is the alternative to traditional red for a Valentine's Day dinner: romance without cliché. The lace trim is feminine, the A-line flatters, and the dress reads as considered rather than costume.
Does the metallic sheen look too shiny or sparkly?
No. The metallic fibers are woven into the cloth itself, not applied as sequins or glitter. The result is a soft luminous quality that reads as dimension in natural light and as a low glow under warm evening lighting. It is refined rather than flashy.
How does this dress compare to the Jody A-Line in Ivory?
Both dresses share the same A-line silhouette, long sheer sleeves, lace trim at the neckline, cuffs, and hemline, and European botanical weave construction. The Ivory is made for rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, engagement parties, and pre-wedding celebrations, where soft and luminous reads right. The Bordeaux is made for fall and winter weddings, holiday galas, and evening occasions, where depth and warmth of color serve the room.
Can this be paired with matching Jody pieces?
Yes. The Luna Jody Bordeaux capsule includes the Jody Tailored Lace Blazer in Bordeaux, the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Bordeaux, the Jody Lace Cardigan in Bordeaux, the Jody Elegant Lace Blouse in Bordeaux, and the Jody Lace Belted Sweater in Bordeaux. The dress and the matching blazer together make a complete coordinated evening look.
How should I care for this dress?
Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Air dry. Steam or iron on low if needed. Spot clean gently when needed. Do not bleach.
Is this dress produced in limited quantities?
Yes. Each Jody is made in a small run at a European atelier. When a size is unavailable, a restock is not guaranteed.
Where does the Jody ship from?
The dress ships from California. Orders are dispatched the same or next business day with complimentary standard delivery within the continental United States, arriving in up to 5 business days. A 30 day return window applies.
