Description

The Jody Lace A-Line Dress in Ivory is a refined ivory knee-length dress with lace trim with long sheer sleeves and a soft metallic sheen woven into the fabric. It is built for women who want the romance of ivory lace at pre-wedding events and formal occasions without crossing into bridal territory, with the A-line silhouette flattering across body types and decades.

Fabric
84% botanical weave, 10% metallic fibers, 6% elastane. The metallic fibers catch light with a quiet sheen rather than a sparkle, giving the ivory dimension that photographs softly under natural daylight and warm interior light. Intricate lace details run along the neckline, cuffs, and hemline. The long sleeves are sheer with lace trim at the wrist. The elastane content gives the dress shape recovery across a full evening of wear. 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 fit through the bodice and defined natural waist. The A-line skirt flows from the waist with ease and structure together. Long sheer sleeves fit true to arm measurement, with lace cuffs at the wrist. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer bodice line or the larger for additional ease through the skirt. See the Luna sizing guide for measurement specifications. Model is 5 foot 9 inches wearing size 2. The length is 39” from the back of the neck to the hem on a size 2.

Styling
For rehearsal dinners and engagement parties, pair with the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Bordeaux for tonal contrast and gold drop earrings.
For destination wedding pre-events in Italy or the Mediterranean, the Loretta Silk Floral Scarf works as ceremony coverage in religious venues.
For charity gala settings in lighter palettes, the Julia Evening Clutch Bag in Green adds a single color note.
For cooler evenings, the Linea Belted Midi Coat in Ivory carries the tonal family across arrival.
For winter pre-wedding events, the Iris Short Tailored Coat in Deep Black layers cleanly over the long sleeves.
Gold reads warmer with ivory than silver; hold one metal across all hardware.

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 preserve the A-line shape.

Featured in the Charity Gala Outfit guide, the Rehearsal Dinner Mother of the Bride guide, and the Italian Coastal Wedding Guest guide. Explore the Ivory Lace Edit, the Luna Wedding Edit, and the Destination Wedding Edit.

The coat over it

The ivory Jody ends at or just above the knee, and a red coat over ivory makes a warm contrast. At $825, the Red Wool Coat with Faux-Fur Collar, Selina falls to the knee or a little below it, with a red faux fur collar and a tie belt. The Beige Jacquard Trench Coat, Rea ($770) gives a softer daytime look in cream and ends at the knee with the dress.

Is the Jody true to size?
Yes. The fit runs true to size with a defined waist and a forgiving A-line skirt. For a more fitted silhouette at the waist, size down one.
Can I wear ivory to a wedding as a guest?
Yes, with discretion. Ivory is widely accepted for rehearsal dinners, engagement parties, bridal showers, and pre wedding celebrations, where it honors the occasion without competing with the bride on her ceremony day. For the ceremony itself, many brides specifically request guests avoid white or ivory to keep visual focus on the bridal party. Always check with the couple if you plan to wear ivory to the actual wedding day. For rehearsal dinners and other pre wedding events, ivory is considered appropriate and elegant.
Is this appropriate as a mother of the bride dress?
Yes, especially for non traditional or pre wedding events. For rehearsal dinners, bridal luncheons, and engagement parties, ivory lace photographs beautifully and honors the bridal palette. For the wedding ceremony itself, discuss with the bride; many couples welcome ivory for the mother of the bride, but preferences vary.
What makes the A-line silhouette flattering?
The A-line cut follows the natural shape of the body through the bodice and waist, then flares gently outward below the waist. This creates a visual hourglass for body types that carry weight at the hips or thighs, defines the waist for straight body types, and adds softness for athletic builds. The A-line is considered among the most universally flattering dress silhouettes in European tailoring tradition.
Does the metallic sheen look too shiny or sparkly?
No. The metallic fibers are woven into the fabric structure, not applied as sequins or glitter. This creates a soft luminous quality that photographs as dimension in natural light and a subtle glow under warm evening lighting. The effect is refined rather than flashy.
What is botanical weave fabric?
Botanical weave refers to natural plant based fiber blends used in European atelier production. The fabric is breathable, holds shape, and drapes fluidly. The blend in Jody includes 6% elastane for recovery and 10% metallic fibers for the soft sheen.
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 produced in small runs at a European atelier. When a size is unavailable, restock is not guaranteed.
Where does 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 2 to 5 business days. Returns and exchanges are free within 30 days in the United States, no questions asked.
