The Sahara Velvet Jersey Maxi Dress takes the inherent stretch and comfort of jersey and enriches it with a velvet finish that gives depth, lustre, and movement. The silhouette is longline and dramatic, with a round neckline, keyhole back detail, full-length sleeves, and a hem that pools gracefully. Soft darting and natural give in the fabric allow it to skim the figure while maintaining ease of wear, resulting in a piece that feels as good as it looks.
In damson, the colour glows with jewel-like intensity, shifting subtly with light. This is a dress for day-to-night styling, equally at home layered with boots and knitwear or elevated with statement jewellery. The combination of velvet’s luxury with jersey’s ease ensures it justifies its place as an investment piece - one that bridges occasionwear and elevated everyday dressing with Sahara’s signature confidence.
