Collection: Sissy Nation

The Sissy Nation look

Sweetheart necklines, ribbons and volume define the house. The Daisy Butterfly Sleeve Top is a structured peplum with a sweetheart neckline, butterfly sleeves and a ribbon at the waist, and it pairs with the Daisy Pin Tuck Skirt, a tailored midi sheath with pin tuck detail. The À La Rose Ribbon Top and the La Vie Ribbon Top repeat the ribbon signature as sleeveless sheath tops.

The dresses go from garden to gala. The Secret Garden A-line Maxi Dress and the Secret Garden Shirring Midi Dress are the daytime romantics, while the Peony Ball Gown Maxi Dress, the Rosie Ball Gown Ruffle Layer Organza Floor Length Dress and the Think Of Me Ball Gown Layered Silk Organza Floor Length Dress are full ball gowns in layered organza. Between them sit the Swan Lake Square Neck Ruffle Maxi Dress and the Royal Dream Puff Sleeve Gathering Maxi Dress.

Six capsules

La Vie En Rose holds the pink ribbon tops and sweetheart dresses. Swan Lake is the white and ivory group, built around square necks and ruffles. Whispering Petals and Whispers Of Wonderland are the floral and tulle capsules. The Phantom Of The Opera is the darkest and most theatrical, with corsets such as the Christine Bodycon Semi-Heart Neck Silk Taffeta Corset. The Girls Who Left The City is the smallest and most relaxed, with cotton pieces like the Summertime Sadness A-line Puffy Sleeved Cotton Maxi Dress.

When to wear Sissy Nation

Tags cover anniversaries, cocktail parties, vacation and resort, birthdays, Women's Day and wedding-guest events. The ball gowns are for proms and formal receptions; the sweetheart tops with the I'm Yours A-line Skirt or the J'adore Pleated Skirt work for dinners and daytime celebrations. For Gulf customers who want coverage, the Clover A-line Poet Sleeved Silk Lace Ankle Length Dress, the Mademoiselle A-line Ruffle Trim Silk Lace Ankle Length Dress and the Eloise High Neck Mini Dress worn over trousers offer sleeves and length while keeping the romantic detail.

How does Sissy Nation fit?

Bodices are fitted and often corseted; skirts flare from the waist. The brand has its own size chart, so check it on the product page rather than assuming your usual size.

How should I style it?

Pick one volume. A full skirt with a fitted top, or a puff-sleeved dress with flat sandals, keeps the look sweet rather than costume.

Where else should I look?

Each of the six capsule pages above lists the full set of pieces in that mood, and the brand's gowns also appear in the store-wide gowns and wedding-guest edits at MEAN BLVD.
