Women's Sliced Midi Dress
Rick Owens
$1540.00
Product Insights & Style Tips
Rick Owens presents a sliced midi dress that feels architectural and cinematic. The fitted off-the-shoulder bodice carves a clean, sculptural line, while velvet skirt sways with quiet drama. Silk godet pleats at the hem add shape and a playful flutter as you move. The upper is 96% viscose with 4% elastane for a lean, responsive fit; the lower is 82% viscose with 18% silk for lush drape, with 100% silk details finishing the look.
The silhouette skims at the top and blooms into the velvet fall, with short sleeves and an off-the-shoulder neckline that reveal a touch of skin. The blend supports the body through a fitted bodice and a fluid, swinging skirt, while the godets provide movement without heaviness. It layers easily with a sharp jacket or long coat for cooler evenings, and it carries from day to night with a quiet confidence. Model is 5'10 tall and wears a US size 4.
Owens leans into restrained opulence here, mixing velvet with silk and a sliced line that feels cool and modern. This piece nails the brand's moody luxury ethos and reads as a high impact option that wears just as well with minimalist sandals or with boots.
