Copper Star is an orange African print wedding guest dress designed to make an entrance without relying on embellishment. Cut from 100% cotton Ankara wax print in burnt orange, deep green, navy and copper, it combines a structured off-shoulder bodice with a dramatic full-flare skirt for a defined, occasion-ready silhouette.
The V-dip foldover neckline frames the shoulders while the fitted bodice shapes through the waist. A matching self-fabric belt gives you the option to add further definition, while the voluminous skirt creates movement as you walk. Two deep side-seam pockets are built discreetly into the skirt, and the fully lined construction gives the dress additional structure and comfort.
With its rich orange palette and statement shape, Copper Star works particularly well for weddings, receptions, formal celebrations and other special occasions where you want a distinctive African print dress that stands apart from standard occasionwear.
