{"product_id":"anthea-crystal-embellished-black-evening-gown","title":"Anthea — Crystal Bodice Evening Gown with Black Draped Skirt, High Slit and Collar","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnthea is defined by a clear division of light and dark. A silver-toned crystal bodice sits above a long black skirt, its closely repeated reflective rows creating a bright, almost continuous surface. The skirt takes a softer direction, with diagonal draping across the hips and a high opening at the front. Together, the two sections give the gown a particularly direct evening presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strapless upper edge is broad and nearly straight, leaving an open area between the bodice and the crystal collar shown at the neck. That collar repeats the reflective pattern on a smaller scale. A long, sheer black drape trails behind, extending the darker half of the palette beyond the skirt. The shoulders and arms remain bare within this arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCrystal detail with a precise outline\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bodice's interest lies in repetition rather than a large floral motif. Small crystals form closely spaced lines across the shaped surface, and the top and lower edges remain clearly defined. This gives the upper section the appearance of a complete decorative piece, with the plain black skirt providing an uninterrupted background beneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe collar creates a second band of light near the face. In a closer portrait, the open space between collar and bodice allows both to remain visible as separate elements. In a full-length view, the black skirt lengthens the overall composition, while the front opening introduces another strong line. These different views are useful to consider when choosing Anthea for your occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a gala, a black-tie dinner or a formal reception, Anthea can appeal if you want the clarity of a black evening skirt with a more luminous upper section. The design already brings jewellery-like detail into the look, so your accessories can follow that idea without adding several competing focal points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe black skirt and trailing drape\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft folds gather across the upper skirt towards one side, then fall into the long front opening. The slit makes the shoe part of the visible styling, and the small train shown behind extends the floor-length outline. A simple metallic sandal can echo the crystal bodice, while a black shoe can keep the lower half more continuous in colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sheer drape adds a lighter, transparent layer alongside the darker skirt. Review how it falls with the collar and how those details are supplied for your chosen order. Its presence changes the outline when the fabric moves away from the body, so consider it as part of the complete look rather than only as an accessory in a still photograph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the crystal collar in place, earrings may be all you want near the face. Try their size beside the collar's width. A compact bag with a plain surface can leave the bodice and hip draping visible, and a hairstyle that reveals the neck can show the spacing between the two bright bands clearly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring a fitting, review the strapless upper edge, waist transition and the line over the hips. Walk and sit to assess the skirt opening, then discuss the hem, train and trailing drape with your intended shoes. If the height of the slit or the open shoulders affects your choice, include those points in the conversation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can \u003ca href=\"\/en-qa\/pages\/appointment\"\u003earrange a Maison Harleen appointment\u003c\/a\u003e to explore Anthea's proportions. Its distinctive balance remains simple to recognise: a bright crystal frame above a long, fluid expanse of black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Maison Harleen","offers":[{"title":"White \/ M — UK 10 \/ EUR 38","offer_id":45468598599734,"sku":null,"price":2715.0,"currency_code":"QAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ L — UK 12 \/ EUR 40","offer_id":45468598632502,"sku":null,"price":2715.0,"currency_code":"QAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ XL — UK 14 \/ EUR 42","offer_id":45468598665270,"sku":null,"price":2715.0,"currency_code":"QAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ XXL — UK 16 \/ EUR 44","offer_id":45468598698038,"sku":null,"price":2715.0,"currency_code":"QAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 3XL — UK 18 \/ EUR 46","offer_id":45468598730806,"sku":null,"price":2715.0,"currency_code":"QAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/6114\/7446\/files\/EmptyName76.jpg?v=1789242133","url":"https:\/\/maisonharleen.com\/en-qa\/products\/anthea-crystal-embellished-black-evening-gown","provider":"Maison Harleen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
