Francesca RDAD1173 – Curvy Occasionwear Dress – Richard Designs
Satin & Chiffon A-Line Occasion Dress with Elegant Sleeve Detail
The Francesca RDAD1173 by Richard Designs is a beautifully refined curvy occasionwear dress designed to combine timeless sophistication with soft feminine movement. Crafted from a luxurious blend of smooth satin and lightweight chiffon, this elegant silhouette offers graceful structure, fluid movement, and exceptional comfort for weddings, formal celebrations, race days, and elegant special occasions.
Part of our dedicated Curvy Occasionwear Collection, the Francesca has been carefully selected for its flattering proportions, supportive shaping, and beautifully balanced silhouette. Designed to enhance curves while maintaining softness and ease of wear, this refined style offers confidence and elegance throughout the day and evening.
A carefully positioned satin collar detail creates a flattering wrap-over effect across the front bodice, softly shaping the silhouette while adding elegant structure and contemporary refinement. This flows seamlessly into a softly fitted satin waistband, designed to define the waist beautifully without feeling restrictive.
The flowing chiffon skirt moves gracefully with every step, introducing softness and fluidity throughout the design. Elegant sheer chiffon sleeves provide graceful coverage while maintaining lightness and breathability, finished with fitted satin cuffs detailed with delicate satin-covered buttons and loops for a polished couture-inspired finish.
Fully lined with a smooth woven lining for comfort and confidence, the dress fastens neatly at the centre back with a concealed zip to maintain a clean and sophisticated silhouette from every angle.
Available in a wide range of chiffon shades, the Francesca RDAD1173 can be personalised beautifully to coordinate with your chosen occasion palette. Shown here in Navy, with the store sample available in Chocolate.
Every Richard Designs occasionwear piece is selected during a relaxed private appointment experience, allowing personalised styling guidance and the opportunity to explore colours, fit, and coordinating accessories within our bridal boutique.
