Description

The Jody Lace Cocktail Dress in Ivory is a fitted knee-length cocktail dress with a lace bodice in viscose and ivory European lace, a sheer illusion yoke, and short lace sleeves. It is made for the pre-wedding events where the bride has chosen ivory rather than white, and for the woman who would rather read as luminous than declarative.

Fabric
Viscose with a European lace overlay in ivory. The viscose moves well, sits smooth against the skin, and has a low luminous finish that catches light without shine. Ivory lace reads as soft and feminine without crossing into bridal, particularly with accessories that are not white. The lace is woven dense enough to read as texture rather than transparency. 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 at a seated dinner or a church ceremony. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer line or the larger for comfort over a layer. Measurements are in the Luna sizing guide. The model is 5 foot 9 inches and wears size 2. The length is 37” from the back of the neck to the hem on a size 2.

Styling
For a rehearsal dinner where the bride has approved ivory, carry the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Bordeaux for tonal contrast and wear gold drop earrings.
For an Italian coastal or destination wedding pre-event, the Loretta Silk Floral Scarf works as ceremony coverage and as a styling layer.
For a cooler evening, the Linea Belted Midi Coat in Ivory carries the ivory through the arrival.
For a warm afternoon, the Klara Structured Mini Handbag in a neutral keeps the focus on the lace.
Hold one metal tone across all hardware; gold reads warmer with ivory than silver.

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

Featured in the Rehearsal Dinner Mother of the Bride guide, the Engagement Party Outfit guide, and the Italian Coastal Wedding Guest guide. Explore the Ivory Lace Edit, the Luna Wedding Edit, and the Spring and Summer Wedding Edit.

Is the Jody 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.
Can I wear ivory to a wedding as a guest?
Yes, with discretion. Ivory is widely accepted for rehearsal dinners, bridal luncheons, 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 ask guests to avoid white or ivory so the focus stays on the bridal party. Check with the couple before wearing ivory to the ceremony. For every pre-wedding and post-wedding event, ivory is appropriate.
What occasions is this dress best suited for?
Pre-wedding and post-wedding celebrations, bridal showers, engagement parties, milestone birthdays, christenings, confirmations, and daytime celebrations. It also works for an executive luncheon or a professional daytime event where lace is welcome. It is not usually worn to the wedding ceremony itself.
Is this appropriate for a bridal shower or bridal luncheon?
Yes. Ivory lace is a classic choice for a bridal luncheon, a bridal shower, or a pre-wedding event. The Jody silhouette and knee length suit these occasions, and the soft luminous finish of the viscose photographs well in daylight and indoors alike.
What is viscose?
Viscose is a fiber spun from plant cellulose, most often wood pulp. It drapes fluidly, breathes, and sits smooth against the skin with a soft, low sheen.
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.
Can I wear this to the office?
Yes, for an executive luncheon, a corporate daytime reception, a client meeting, or a professional daytime event. The ivory does not ask for attention, and the lace sets the dress apart from standard professional wear. Layer a tailored blazer in camel, navy, or cream over it for the full executive look.
How does this compare to the Jody Lace A-Line Dress in Ivory and the Jody in Black, Bordeaux, and Midnight Green?
The Jody Cocktail in Ivory shares the same fitted silhouette, sheer illusion yoke, short lace sleeves, and knee length as the Black, Bordeaux, and Midnight Green cocktail dresses. The Ivory is made in viscose under European lace, and its light color suits daytime and pre-wedding occasions. The Jody Lace A-Line in Ivory is a different silhouette entirely, with an A-line skirt and long sheer sleeves, for more formal occasions and wedding guest settings.
Can this be paired with matching Jody pieces?
Yes. The Luna Jody Ivory capsule includes the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Ivory, the Jody Elegant Lace Blouse in Ivory, and the Jody Tailored Cardigan in Ivory. The Jody Tailored Lace Blazer in Ivory layers over this dress for a cooler occasion or evening coverage.
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.
