Green Lace Cocktail Dress, Jody

The Jody Lace Cocktail Dress in Midnight Green is a fitted knee-length cocktail dress with a lace bodice in viscose, a sheer illusion yoke, short lace sleeves, and soft draping at the waist. It is made for the woman who wants an evening color that sits apart from the bordeaux, black, and navy in every other seat at the table, and still reads as restrained rather than declarative.

Fabric
Viscose with a European lace overlay in deep forest green. The viscose moves well, sits smooth against the skin, and has a low luminous finish. Midnight green photographs with depth under candlelit and warm interior light, and the lace is woven dense enough to read as texture rather than transparency. The color carries through fall and winter, then crosses into spring with the right pairing. Designed and crafted in Europe as part of Luna Fashion House. Featured at OC Fashion Week 2026, Catalina Island runway.

Fit
True to size, fitted through the bodice and the natural waist. The hem sits at the knee on most heights. The short lace sleeves cover the upper arm in seated dinner photographs. Between sizes, choose the smaller for a closer line or the larger for comfort over a layer. Measurements are in the Luna sizing guide. The model is 5 foot 9 inches and wears size 2. The length is 39” from the back of the neck to the hem on a size 2.

Styling
For a Christmas dinner or a holiday cocktail party, add the Tili Belt in Black at the natural waist and carry the Klara Structured Mini Handbag.
For New Year's Eve, the Julia Evening Clutch Bag in Yellow adds the one note of sparkle the look needs.
For a winter arrival, the Lucy Wool Coat with Faux Fur Collar in Black reads cleanest against midnight green.
For a rehearsal dinner as the mother of the groom, the Iris Short Tailored Coat in Deep Black layers cleanly over the lace.
Gold and rose gold read warmer with midnight green than silver; hold one metal across all hardware.

Care
Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Air dry. Steam or iron on low if needed. Do not bleach.

The coat over it

The Jody cocktail dress in midnight green reads close to black, and the Teal Floral Jacquard Light Coat, Emma draws the green out with teal flowers on a black ground. It is $880, and measured on the size our model wears it runs 3 inches past the dress. In plain black, the Black Textured Coat with Faux Fur Collar and Cuffs, Paula ($770) is the evening alternative, with faux fur at the collar and the cuffs.
