Brand: MNM Couture
SKU: MNM-2540-BLACK-6
Availability: InStock

Striking at first glance, the Fouad Sarkis 2540 off-shoulder origami fishtail gown by MNM Couture is a study in modern couture. This isn’t another evening dress. It’s architectural drama in motion—one moment you’re studying the sharp folds, the next you’re swept away by the bold lines and artistic silhouette. Black satin moves with every step, reflecting light just enough. That sculpted bodice? Off-shoulder, with long sleeves framing the neckline in a way that feels both timeless and now. There’s a playful, perfectly tied bow at the waist (yes, it makes its point), and the skirt flares out to a dramatic fishtail that hinges between sculpture and silhouette.

Every element here tells a story. Designed to steal focus, this gown isn’t about blending in at a formal event, prom, or even a red-carpet-worthy gala. It’s for that once-in-a-lifetime entrance (and yeah, for all the candid photos later). Fluid but structured, you’ll feel wrapped in luxury with the geometric folds—call it couture origami meets high-impact eveningwear.

Maybe it’s black-tie season, or you’ve got something splashy lined up. Either way, this dress makes the call easy. Style it with minimalist heels, skip heavy jewelry, let the gown breathe. Or don’t—startle them with bold earrings and a slick updo. Either approach, this black formal dress is about intention and presence.

Highlights:
- Origami-inspired architecture: sharp folds, dimensional back panel
- Off-shoulder neckline with fitted long sleeves
- Statement bow accent at natural waist
- Dramatic fishtail hem, designed to move and flow
- Sleek black finish catches light, defines silhouette
- Precisely tailored for a structured (but wearable) couture fit
- Designed for proms, galas, black-tie events, or whenever the spotlight calls

Quick scenario—walk into a charity benefit, a winter gala, or prom night. Immediately, heads turn. That silhouette’s all power, but it’s not shouting. Honestly, that’s the secret: confidence without a word spoken. For photos, it’s dramatic from all angles (the back panel, the lines, the fit). Whatever the season, pair with a cropped jacket if the venue’s brisk, or let the off-shoulder neckline take center stage in warmer months. You’ll want a room that matches up.

Care and Maintenance: This is the couture zone—spot clean any minor spills, and dry clean only. Store lying flat or with a wide-shoulder hanger to preserve the origami structure. Keep away from direct sunlight in storage (fading’s not the look you want). Handle that bow gently—no tugging.

Sizing & Fit: Available in size 4, with a structured bodice and true formal fit. If you’re between sizes, consider the bust and waist allowance—the dress is cut to hold its lines. Wear with supportive undergarments (strapless, please). The off-shoulder cut offers some room, but movement’s best for dancing and walking—not marathon sprints.

FAQ:
Q: Is the bow detachable or fixed?
A: The bow at the waist is a fixed design element—it’s sculpted directly into the dress for structure, so it won’t shift or fall apart while wearing.

Q: What kind of fabric is this dress made from?
A: The gown is crafted from premium, weighty satin and structural materials to achieve the origami folds and sharp lines. The fabric holds its shape beautifully but still offers movement.

Q: Will the off-shoulder fit stay in place through dancing or movement?
A: The off-shoulder neckline is tailored to stay secure and is reinforced at key stress points. It’s designed for evening wear and light dancing, not heavy athletic activity.

Q: How should I store it between wears?
A: Store the gown on a wide, padded hanger or flat in a garment bag. Avoid squeezing the folds to keep the shape crisp. Don’t store in direct light.

Q: Is the skirt very fitted around the legs?
A: The fishtail skirt fits through the hips and thighs, then flares dramatically below the knees. There’s enough room to walk easily—just don’t plan on sprinting.
