About TOM FRIED
The TOM FRIED look
The formal end of the collection starts with the Seline Ball Gown Maxi Dress, a fitted bodice over a full skirt with a round neck, and the Elenor Embroidery Maxi Dress, a ball gown with embroidery and sequin work, a mandarin collar and regular sleeves. The Irene V-Neck Maxi Dress is a mermaid cut with a deep V and long sleeves, the Eiren Lace Maxi Dress is a lace sheath with a high neck and full sleeves, and the Yse High Neck Maxi Dress and the Vyn A-line Maxi Dress are A-line gowns with regular sleeves and a high neck or a round neck.
The rest of the maxi dresses vary the shoulder and the surface. The Lea Cape Sleeve Maxi Dress and the Iva Cape Sleeve Maxi Dress add capes, the Fae One Shoulder Maxi Dress and the Eve One Shoulder Maxi Dress bare one side, and the Ami, Sev and Rae dresses are off-shoulder. The Mia Mermaid Maxi Dress follows the body, the Rhea Ruched Maxi Dress and the Ina Ruched Maxi Dress gather the fabric, the Lux Draped Maxi Dress and the Ari Draped Maxi Dress fall softly, and the Noa, Dia, Orel and Maelle dresses carry applique. The Belle Asymmetric Neck Maxi Dress, the Elia Trapeze Neck Maxi Dress and the Neo Boat Neck Maxi Dress are the cleaner necklines.
Midis and sets
Four shorter pieces break up the gowns: the Niven Scallop Midi Dress, the Elyn Asymmetric Midi Dress, the Ryn Applique Midi Dress and the Zire Lace Midi Dress. The Elyne High Neck Set and the Ory Mermaid Set are the two-piece options. Everything from the label sits in the Maison des Roses Collection, and the floor-length pieces also appear in the store-wide Gowns edit.
When to wear TOM FRIED
These gowns are bought for wedding guest dressing, homecoming, anniversaries, festive evenings and Women's Day. A large part of the collection is tagged for Ramadan: the Eiren, Yse and Elenor gowns and the Elyne High Neck Set have high necks or collars with full sleeves and floor-length hems, which suits Ramadan and Eid gatherings. Compare them in the The Modest Edit and the Wedding Guest Dresses edit.
How do the gowns fit?
Ball gowns such as the Seline and the Elenor are fitted at the bodice and full below, so size by the bust. Mermaid cuts such as the Irene and the Mia are fitted to the knee, so size by the hip. A-line and sheath gowns skim the body. Most TOM FRIED dresses are tagged for customization, so check the product page for sleeve and length options.
Where else should I look?
For more shoulder coverage in a similar register, the Cape Sleeve Dresses edit gathers cape styles from across MEAN BLVD, and all Gowns shows the full floor-length range.
