The Rina Elegant Midi Dress in Black is a tailored midi dress in a textured viscose and elastane blend, with a square neckline framed by a line of white piping, a button detail at the waist, and short sleeves. It is for the woman whose calendar asks for designed restraint rather than embellishment: the piping reads as tailoring, not decoration.
Fabric
A blend of viscose and elastane in a textured weave, sourced from a European mill. The viscose gives the cloth a fluid hand and a clean drape; the elastane gives shape recovery across a full day. The texture catches light with quiet dimension under daylight and warm evening light. The white piping at the neckline is a single piped line, placed to read as precision rather than contrast. Designed and crafted in Europe as part of Luna Fashion House. European atelier construction since 1990.
Fit
True to size, tailored through the bodice and natural waist. The square neckline sits cleanly across the collarbones, framed by the piping. Short sleeves fit true to arm measurement. The A-line midi skirt finishes at mid-calf. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer tailored line or the larger for more ease across the body. See the Luna sizing guide for measurements. Model is 5 foot 9 inches wearing size 2. The length is 46” from the back of the neck to the hem on a size 2.
Styling
For executive daytime and board meetings, layer the Natasha Tailored Blazer in Sand Beige over the dress for tonal contrast.
For client dinners and afternoon presentations, carry the Klara Structured Mini Handbag with pearl drops.
For memorial services and formal daytime occasions, the Agatha Pearl Detail Blazer in Ivory layers cleanly over the square neckline.
For the day that turns into evening, switch to the Jody Lace Clutch Bag in Black and satin heels.
For travel days where one dress must carry several rooms, the Iris Short Tailored Coat in Deep Black layers cleanly for arrival.
Silver reads cleaner with the black-and-white piping than warm gold; hold one metal across earrings, bracelet, and watch.
Care
Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Air dry. Steam or iron on low if needed. Spot clean gently. Do not bleach. Store on a broad padded hanger.
Featured in the Executive Style Over 45 guide, the Boardroom Outfit guide, and the Cocktail Party Outfit guide. Explore the Luna Dress Edit, the Business Outfits Edit, and the Essentials Edit.
The coat over it
The white piping at the square neck of the black Rina midi is a cue for an ivory coat. The Ivory Belted Midi Coat, Linea ($770) sits close to that white and runs 2 inches past the dress in our measurements. On a cold day, the Gray Herringbone Wool Wrap Coat, Nicole ($825) measures the same length as the dress, so both hems meet at mid calf. Rina and the Linea coat come to $1,365 together.
