The Dora Feather Trim Dress in Black is a fitted V-neck sheath in clean black crepe with cap sleeves, finished with a removable ostrich-feather collar at the V-neckline and a horizontal pavé crystal bar at the natural waist. It is 2 dresses in 1, for the woman who wants a single black dress that reads as dramatic evening with the feathers on and as a refined little black dress when they come off.
Fabric
Polyester crepe with 5% elastane for controlled stretch that holds the bodice line through a long seated dinner and a standing reception. The matte black surface absorbs light cleanly, so the pavé crystal bar at the waist reads as a single point of jewelry rather than competing with the fabric. The removable ostrich-feather collar clips into the V-neckline at both shoulders and traces the V at the front and the back; the connection sits flat against the seam, so the dress reads clean when the collar is off. Cut and constructed in the Luna atelier in Pozarevac, Serbia. European atelier construction since 1990.
Fit
True to size through the bodice and natural waist, with princess seams shaping the body and a fitted sheath line through the hip. The hem sits at the knee with a small center-back vent for stride. A concealed back zipper finishes the V-back neckline without interrupting the silhouette. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer line at the bodice or the larger for more ease at the hip. See the Luna sizing guide for measurements. The length is 38” from the back of the neck to the hem on a size 2. Model is 5 foot 9 inches wearing size 2.
Styling
For a cocktail reception or a gallery opening, wear the feather collar attached with the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Black and pointed-toe pumps for one tonal evening line.
For a charity gala or a milestone birthday dinner, keep the feathers on and let the Klara Structured Mini Handbag in a neutral carry the eye to the crystal waist.
For a private dinner and a quieter little black dress, remove the feather collar and finish with a satin clutch in matching black.
For the mother of the bride at an evening reception, layer the Agatha Pearl Detail Blazer in Ivory over the dress without the feather trim for the arrival.
Crystal jewelry echoes the waist without crowding the neckline; hold one metal across earrings, ring, and clutch hardware.
Care
Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Air dry. Steam or iron on low if needed. Detach the feather collar before any cleaning. Spot clean small marks gently with cold water. Do not bleach. Store the dress on a broad padded hanger, and store the feather collar flat in the direction of the feathers to keep the loft.

The coat over it
Dora is a black crepe sheath that ends at the knee, where the Black Wool Coat with Faux Fur Collar, Lucy ends too. The ostrich feather collar of the dress is removable, so you can take it off under the coat and put it back on at the table. The coat is $910. The Ivory Belted Midi Coat, Linea ($770) is the ivory contrast and reaches mid calf.
