How should I care for this Alaïa midi dress?
This dress is crafted from 100% virgin wool with ribbed detailing containing wool, polyamide, and elastane. We recommend dry cleaning only to maintain the sculptural pleating and fabric integrity. Store on a padded hanger to preserve the dress's shape.

This item has a snug fit similar to activewear or shapewear, designed for a second-skin silhouette. The model is 1.79m (5.9ft) and wears size FR36. The dress fits very tightly and is designed for a body-hugging, performance-inspired style.
Are Alaïa midi dresses suitable for formal events?
Absolutely. This sculpting dress combines Alaïa's signature architectural design with elegant midi length, making it perfect for formal occasions, art gallery events, and sophisticated evening gatherings.
What makes this dress unique to Alaïa's design philosophy?
This piece embodies Alaïa's mastery of sculptural fashion through intricate pleating and body-conscious construction. The virgin wool material and precise tailoring create the brand's signature second-skin aesthetic that celebrates the female form.
