{"product_id":"the-cascade-cape-sleeve-midi","title":"The Cascade | Cape-Sleeve Midi Dress with Side Split","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"es-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px;line-height:1.8;color:#2f2f2f;margin:0 0 16px;font-size:17px;color:#1b1b1b;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe dress you wear to someone else's wedding has a different job from the dress you wear to your own evening. It has to be interesting from a distance, comfortable through a long dinner, and quiet enough that nobody mistakes it for a bid for attention.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px;line-height:1.8;color:#2f2f2f;margin:0 0 16px;\"\u003eThe Cascade is built around a cape sleeve, which is a piece of fabric that falls from the shoulder over the top of the arm rather than wrapping it. That construction hides the upper arm without covering it, which is the reason this silhouette keeps returning to evening wear. Underneath, the body is a slim midi with a straight fall and a side split that opens as you walk. The split is cut to a length that clears the knee, so it moves without exposing anything when you sit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px;line-height:1.8;color:#2f2f2f;margin:0 0 16px;\"\u003eThe fabric is a matte polyester with slight stretch, chosen for a specific reason: it photographs without a sheen. Evening dresses in satin finish look expensive in a room and cheap under a camera flash, and this one avoids that problem entirely. The V-neck is cut deep enough to carry a pendant and shallow enough to wear without one, and the shoulders are left bare so the cape line reads cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px;line-height:1.8;color:#2f2f2f;margin:0 0 16px;\"\u003eBlue is the only colourway, and it is the right one for a wedding guest dress because it sits between formality and friendliness. Sizes run S, M and L with a regular fit. The midi length lands below the knee on most heights, which keeps it appropriate for a ceremony and still easy to dance in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.75;color:#6b6b6b;font-style:italic;margin:22px 0 0;padding-left:16px;border-left:2px solid #d9d2c5;\"\u003eA cape sleeve, a clean fall, one split.

style=\"margin:0;font-size:15px;line-height:1.8;color:#333;\"\u003eThis is a wedding guest dress first and an evening dress second, which is the useful way round. With a heel and a small bag it handles a ceremony, a reception and the part of the night where everyone has taken their shoes off. With a cropped jacket and flats it works for a restaurant dinner or a theatre booking. The cape sleeve is also why it suits anyone who prefers not to have their arms bare, without resorting to a shawl that has to be held all evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"es-faq\" style=\"margin-top:32px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:19px;letter-spacing:0.02em;margin:0 0 14px;color:#1b1b1b;\"\u003eQuestions Before Ordering\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 4px;font-weight:600;color:#1b1b1b;font-size:15px;\"\u003eDoes the cape sleeve get in the way?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;color:#444;font-size:15px;line-height:1.7;\"\u003eIt moves with the arm rather than restricting it, because the fabric hangs from the shoulder instead of closing around the arm. Eating and holding a glass are unaffected. It will brush the table edge if you lean forward, which is the one small thing to know.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 4px;font-weight:600;color:#1b1b1b;font-size:15px;\"\u003eHow high is the side split?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;color:#444;font-size:15px;line-height:1.7;\"\u003eIt opens to roughly knee height, so it clears the leg when you walk and closes when you sit.

That was a deliberate choice so the dress photographs properly under flash, which is where satin evening dresses tend to fail. The trade-off is that it does not have the liquid drape of a satin, so the cape falls in a cleaner line instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 4px;font-weight:600;color:#1b1b1b;font-size:15px;\"\u003eWill the blue work for a summer wedding?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;color:#444;font-size:15px;line-height:1.7;\"\u003eIt works year round.
