floral empire waist dress Unbelievably Lovely Red Babydoll Mini and a seamed bodice with a cute bow detail at the center Vintage Saks Fifth Avenue Empire

Unlike a sheath dress that follows the bodys curves or an empire waist that flares from the bust, the A-line cut creates a distinct triangular shape from the waist down

Crafted from smooth wool fabric, this piece comes in classic navy and has a sultry backless cut that's held up by ultra-fine crisscrossing straps

The seller, who bought the dress for $70,000 in 2010 for her wedding, admitted to making some alterationsincluding adding straps, extra embroidery, and an additional satin layer at the bottom

If you prefer a more casual style, we recommend our A-line midi dresses, which are perfect for a walk around the city or for a dinner with friends
