Women's Hip Knot Short Sleeve Mini Dress | Black | S, M & L

The Women's Hip Knot Dress is a short-sleeve mini dress with a round neckline and a knot detail at the hip — a gathered, tied section of fabric at the side or front of the hip that creates a gathered, cinched effect at that point. The knot detail breaks up the solid silhouette of the dress, adds visual interest at the hip line, and creates a slight drape in the fabric below it. It’s the kind of detail that makes a simple solid-colour dress feel more considered and styled than a plain shift or bodycon.

Made from 97% polyester and 3% elastane/spandex — a stretch-blend that holds its shape, resists wrinkles, and resists pilling through regular wear. At 235g, the fabric has enough weight to drape well without being heavy or stiff. The true-to-size fit and stretch construction mean the dress sits close to the body without being restrictive. Available in black in sizes S, M, and L.

Key Features

• Hip Knot Detail: The defining feature of this dress — a knot or gathered tie in the fabric at the hip that creates a cinched, draped effect. See the product images for the exact placement and styling of the knot detail on this specific dress
• Round Neckline: A classic round neck — covers the collarbone, works with a standard bra, and keeps the neckline modest and versatile
• Short Sleeves: Regular-length short sleeves that cover the upper arm. Not sleeveless — provides more coverage than a tank or spaghetti strap dress, which extends the wearability into cooler weather or air-conditioned environments
• 97% Polyester / 3% Elastane: The polyester base gives the fabric its structure, wrinkle resistance, and pill resistance; the elastane provides the stretch that allows the dress to move comfortably through the body. The fabric weight is 235g — substantial enough to drape well and hold the knot detail in position
• Wrinkle & Pill Resistant: The polyester construction means this dress travels well and doesn’t require ironing after washing or packing — a practical advantage for a dress in this casual-to-smart-casual positioning
• Mini Length: Hem sits above the knee. S measures 35” total length, M measures 36”, L measures 37” — the length increases slightly with each size
• Black Colorway: A versatile base that works across all skin tones, seasons, and occasions. Black absorbs light rather than reflecting it, which is why it’s broadly considered the most slimming and universally flattering colourway for a fitted mini dress

Size Chart

Sizing is true to size. Measurements taken by hand — allow ±1–2cm variation. US and UK size equivalents included for reference.

*L bust, waist, and hip measurements are estimated based on the S–M increment pattern. Contact us to confirm before ordering if you are sizing for L specifically.

Occasion Guidance

The solid black colourway, short sleeve, and hip knot detail make this a versatile dress that works across a range of casual to smart-casual occasions — daily wear, a casual date, a night out, vacation, or a relaxed work environment. The mini length and hip knot keep it fashion-forward rather than conservative; the round neck and short sleeve prevent it from reading as overtly going-out or club wear.

Care Instructions

• Machine wash or hand wash — the polyester/elastane construction is wash-friendly
• Do not bleach
• Tumble dry low or hang to dry
• The wrinkle-resistant fabric means ironing is rarely needed — if required, cool iron only
