Description

The Jody Lace Cocktail Dress in Bordeaux is a fitted knee-length cocktail dress with a lace bodice in deep wine, a sheer illusion yoke, short lace sleeves, and soft draping at the waist. It is made for the fall and winter evening that asks for more than a cocktail dress usually gives and less than a gown, and for the woman who wants to be remembered for her ease in it. Bordeaux sits at the deep end of red and photographs with depth under warm evening and candlelit light.

Fabric
European lace in deep bordeaux, with a fitted underlining that traces the body without clinging. The lace pattern is woven into the fabric rather than applied as an overlay, which gives the dress a dimension that holds across years of wear. The fitted line from collarbone to knee sits cleanly under a coat or a cape for the arrival, then carries the evening on its own. Designed and crafted in Europe as part of Luna Fashion House. Featured at OC Fashion Week 2026, Catalina Island runway.

Fit
True to size, fitted through the bodice and the natural waist. The hem sits at the knee on most heights. The short lace sleeves cover the upper arm in photographs without restricting movement. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer line or the larger for comfort under a cardigan or a wrap. 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 holiday cocktail party or a gala reception, carry the Klara Structured Mini Handbag in a neutral.
For a winter arrival, the Lucy Wool Coat with Faux Fur Collar in Black or the Lucy Wool Coat with Faux Fur Collar in Red layers cleanly over the lace.
For New Year's Eve or a milestone birthday, the Julia Evening Clutch Bag in Yellow adds an unexpected note of color.
For a rehearsal dinner, the Iris Short Tailored Coat in Deep Black sits at the natural waist of the dress.
Hold one metal tone across all hardware; gold reads warmer with bordeaux than silver.

Care
Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Air dry. Steam or iron on low if needed. Do not bleach.

Is the Jody Cocktail true to size?
Yes. The fit runs true to size, fitted through the body with soft draping at the waist. For a closer fit, size down one.
What occasions is this dress best suited for?
Cocktail events, holiday parties, anniversary dinners, fall and winter weddings as a guest, galas, and formal evenings. The bordeaux and the lace read as evening. This is not a daytime workwear dress.
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 the depth of the color photographs well in candlelit and warm indoor venues. The short sleeves and knee length meet traditional wedding guest etiquette.
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 is feminine, the fitted line flatters, and the dress reads as considered rather than costume.
Are the short sleeves constructed from lace or just lace-trimmed?
The sleeves are made entirely of the same European lace as the bodice. That gives the dress continuity, rather than lace used only as a trim.
How does this compare to the Jody Lace A-Line in Bordeaux and the Jody Cocktail in Ivory, Black, and Midnight Green?
The Jody Cocktail in Bordeaux shares the same fitted silhouette, sheer illusion yoke, short lace sleeves, and knee length as the Ivory, Black, and Midnight Green cocktail dresses. The bordeaux is for fall and winter occasions, galas, and evening events. The Jody Lace A-Line in Bordeaux is a different silhouette, with an A-line skirt and long sheer sleeves, for more traditional and formal occasions, including the mother of the bride. As a set: Ivory for spring bridal events, Black for cocktail wear in any season, Bordeaux for fall and winter, and Midnight Green for unexpected color.
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. 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.

The zipper needs a steady hand, but the fit is worth it.

This dress feels like confidence stitched into fabric. The Bordeaux tone is deep and flattering, and the lace has weight and substance. I felt elegant without feeling fragile, which is rare with lace pieces.
