Halston Heritage Deep Purple Maxi Skirt

This is a Halston Heritage cape-style maxi dress in the color “Elderberry” (a deep, rich purple-to-black ombré). Halston Heritage Ombré Chiffon Cape Gown – Elderberry Dramatic cape overlay that drapes from the shoulders and flows to the floor Deep V-neckline (front and back) Fitted bodice with a thin, tonal satin belt at the natural waist Long column skirt with a high front slit (left leg) Ombré chiffon fabric that fades from deep elderberry purple at the top to near-black at the hem Fully lined bodice; skirt is sheer chiffon with an opaque mini-length lining underneath Hidden back zipper Fabric: 100% polyester chiffon Dry clean Originally retailed around $575–$595 USD It’s a red-carpet favorite style from Halston Heritage’s mid-2010s collections (very flowy, glamorous, and forgiving in fit because of the cape overlay). The size 8 you have typically corresponds to the measurements I gave earlier (bust 36–37", waist 29–30", hips 39–40"). The cape adds extra room across the arms/shoulders, so it often fits comfortably even if you’re between sizes or slightly larger in the bust/shoulders.
