Cowl Neck Tie-Strap Faux Leather Mini Dress

Draped Up Top, Fitted Everywhere Else

Thin straps that tie at the shoulder and a soft cowl drape at the neckline set the Cowl Neck Tie-Strap Faux Leather Mini Dress apart from a typical bodycon mini. The same glossy, wet-look faux leather carries through a fitted silhouette, but the draped neckline and knotted straps give this version a softer, more directional edge up top.

The cowl neckline falls into loose, relaxed folds across the chest instead of sitting flat, adding movement to the top of the dress before it settles into a close, fitted line through the waist and hips. Subtle ruching along the sides shapes the silhouette further, while the tie-shoulder straps add a knotted detail that reads as more finished than a plain spaghetti strap.

Finished at a short mini length, this is a dress that trades the crisp, angular look of a straight-edge mini for something a little softer up top, without losing any of the fitted, going-out silhouette underneath.

What Makes This Dress Stand Out

Fit and Fabric Details

The dress is made from PU faux leather, the same glossy, light-catching synthetic material used across our faux leather styles, giving it stretch and an easy-care finish without the upkeep genuine leather requires. That stretch is what lets the cowl neckline drape softly at the top while the rest of the dress stays fitted through the bust, waist, and hips.

Because faux leather doesn’t behave exactly like genuine leather when it comes to care and handling, this leather and suede care guide is a useful read, including its dedicated section on PU-based synthetic leather. The tie-shoulder straps offer a small amount of adjustability, but the fit through the body is still close, so check the size guide below carefully.

Product Specifications

Available Colors

This dress is available in black, the same wet-look finish as the rest of our faux leather collection.

Black keeps the glossy faux leather finish and draped neckline as the main focus, and pairs easily with almost anything already in your closet.

Size Guide

Please check your own measurements against the chart below before ordering, since this dress fits closely through the bust, waist, and hips.

How to Style It

The draped neckline and tie-shoulder straps already add detail up top, so styling can stay simple or go bolder depending on the occasion. See our guide to matching shoes with dresses for more ideas:

When to Wear It

This dress is built for occasions where a bold, going-out look is exactly the point:

• Clubwear and nights out: The wet-look finish and fitted shape make it an easy pick for the dance floor.
• Parties and birthdays: The draped neckline and tie-shoulder straps add a detail that photographs well.
• Date nights: The cowl neckline and glossy finish give it a confident, put-together edge.
• Evening events: An easy choice whenever the occasion calls for a bolder silhouette than your usual.

Care Instructions

A few simple steps help this dress keep its glossy finish over time:

• Hand wash recommended to protect the faux leather’s finish and texture.
• Machine washable on a gentle or delicate cycle if needed.
• Avoid bleach, as it can damage and discolor the faux leather surface.
• Use cold water to help the fabric hold its shape and shine wash after wash.
• Hang to dry rather than using a tumble dryer, which can crack or dull faux leather.
• Store on a padded hanger away from direct heat or sunlight to help the finish last.
