مجموعة: Calista de Minh Thanh

Romantic gowns with rich detail

The label pairs delicate craftsmanship with rich materials and a touch of contemporary art, and the gowns show it. The Yvera maxi has a corset bodice, a velvet bow at the neckline and a glitter A-line skirt. The Savira corset maxi adds a sheer mesh overlay that falls like a veil. The Morven and Valoria draped maxis are cut in jersey for a slim, sculpted line, while the Serelune and Astrelle maxis bring sequins.

Lace is another strength. The Solenne V-neck maxi, the Serenya ruffled midi and the Sabine puff-sleeve mini use Chantilly lace, and the Meliora illusion-neck dress and the Nebula floral dress are worked in mesh lace.

Capes and sets that match

Many Calista de Minh Thanh dresses have a matching cape with the same name. The Glacyn high-neck organza cape goes over the Glacyn sweetheart maxi, the Estrel applique cape pairs with the Estrel rhinestone maxi, and the Evan, Zelia, Kalina, Celestine and Paléa styles follow the same pattern. The Stellara and Nebula capes run extra long.

Two-piece looks include the Orelisse peplum set, a sparkling strapless bustier over a pleated tulle skirt, and the Dorell peplum set in a soft nude tone.

How to wear Calista de Minh Thanh

The gowns suit wedding guests, anniversaries and prom. For Valentine's Day or a birthday dinner, a shorter style such as the Chérie ruffle mini or the Aven sequin mini is easier to wear. For Ramadan evenings, or any event where you want more coverage, layer one of the capes over a strapless or off-shoulder gown, or pick a sleeved style like the Nythera bishop-sleeve midi or the long-sleeved Valoria.

The label releases themed collections, including Éclat Glacé, Bal d’Or, Éveil Astral, Halo Étoilé, L’Âme Dorée and Joyau Éternel.

What does the name Calista de Minh Thanh mean?

The brand says its name is inspired by the meaning "Most Beautiful Princess", which sets the tone for its romantic, detailed designs.

Are the capes sold separately?

Yes. Each cape is listed as its own piece, so you can wear it with the matching dress or over another gown.
