The pleating gives the entire dress a rich, structured texture without any beading, sequins, or embellishment — clean and polished from every angle. A defined waistband marks the transition between the fitted bodice and the flared pleated skirt, giving the silhouette a clear, intentional shape. This is a dress that works through an entire event without asking much of the woman wearing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFit \u0026amp; Silhouette\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMac Duggal 9956326P follows a fit-and-flare line: the bodice fits close through the bust and waist, then the skirt opens into a full, flowing flare that lands at tea length — roughly mid-calf. The a-line skirt has enough volume to move freely without adding bulk at the hips. The defined waistband is a functional part of the silhouette, not just a detail — it anchors the shape and keeps the proportion clean. The tea-length hem is a practical choice for a full event day: long enough to feel formal, short enough to walk and dance in without managing fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFabric \u0026amp; Detail\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dress is constructed in a smooth, fluid satin with a soft drape that holds the pleating well across both the bodice and skirt. The all-over pleating is the defining construction element — it creates surface texture and visual interest without any added decoration. There is no beading, no lace, no sequin, and no embellishment of any kind. The back is fully covered, with fabric meeting the neckline across the full upper back. This is a genuinely simple dress in the best sense: refined, consistent, and free of anything that would limit where or how you wear it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-over pleating running top to bottom across bodice and skirt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScoop neckline with a wide, clean bateau-shaped edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefined waistband creating a clear fit-and-flare silhouette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTea-length hem landing at approximately mid-calf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully covered high back — no exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleeveless cut with a modest, structured frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo beading, sequins, or embellishment — qualifies as simple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in Ocean Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStyle \u0026amp; Occasion\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMac Duggal 9956326P is built for events where you want to look put-together without drawing attention away from anyone else in the room. Wedding guests will find it works across almost every dress code — garden party, semi-formal, formal, and black-tie-adjacent ceremonies alike. The covered back and tea-length hem make it a straightforward choice for mothers of the bride or groom who want something elegant but not fussy. It also fits naturally at galas and formal evening events where cocktail-adjacent dressing is expected. The scoop neckline and sleeveless cut keep it cool enough for outdoor or warm-venue events, while the satin fabric and all-over pleating give it the weight and finish of a dress that belongs at a formal occasion. Style it with a low heel or a strappy sandal — either reads correctly with the tea length. Jewelry can be minimal or statement; the clean surface of the dress handles both without competing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mac Duggal","offers":[{"title":"0P \/ Ocean Blue","offer_id":50658647507137,"sku":"macduggal_9956326P-OceanBlue-0P","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2P \/ Ocean Blue","offer_id":50658647539905,"sku":"macduggal_9956326P-OceanBlue-2P","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4P \/ Ocean Blue","offer_id":50658647572673,"sku":"macduggal_9956326P-OceanBlue-4P","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6P \/ Ocean Blue","offer_id":50658647605441,"sku":"macduggal_9956326P-OceanBlue-6P","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8P \/ Ocean Blue","offer_id":50658647638209,"sku":"macduggal_9956326P-OceanBlue-8P","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10P \/ Ocean Blue","offer_id":50658647670977,"sku":"macduggal_9956326P-OceanBlue-10P","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12P \/ Ocean Blue","offer_id":50658647703745,"sku":"macduggal_9956326P-OceanBlue-12P","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/9541\/files\/mac-duggal-9956326P-Ocean-Blue-Front-1.jpg?v=1790601192","url":"https:\/\/marlasfashions.com\/en-us\/products\/mac-duggal-9956326p-petite","provider":"MarlasFashions.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
