Ladivine · CD728 Strapless Sheer Beaded Mermaid Gown

About the Dress: Ladivine CD728

The Ladivine CD728 is a fully embellished strapless mermaid gown with an allover beaded illusion bodice that flows into a sculpted skirt. Built on a fine mesh base with a nude underlay, the embellishment appears to float directly on the skin. Available in Mauve and Silver Nude, the Ladivine CD728 is red-carpet ready — sheer, daring, and beautifully engineered.

The bodice features a sculpted, contoured neckline that arches gently across the bust — a strapless line softened by careful seam placement so it photographs cleanly from every angle. The beadwork is hand-applied across the entire surface of the gown: from the bodice down through the natural waist, the hips, and across the lower mermaid skirt into a subtle sweep train. The result is a gown that catches and refracts light in every direction, with depth and movement that uniform allover sequin gowns rarely achieve.

Fit & Silhouette

The Ladivine CD728 follows a true mermaid silhouette — fitted through the bodice, waist, hips, and upper thighs, then flaring at the knee into a fluid lower skirt that opens into a small sweep train. This is a body-celebrating shape designed for women who want to highlight an hourglass or curvy figure, and the construction is engineered to support that vision from the inside. Internal boning runs vertically through the bodice and into the natural waist, creating gentle compression that smooths the torso without restricting movement. The sculpted strapless neckline is anchored with a silicone grip strip at the upper edge to prevent slipping during long wear.

The mermaid flare begins just above the knee, giving the Ladivine CD728 its dramatic hourglass profile from the waist down. Walking is comfortable thanks to the engineered hem flare — there is enough room through the lower skirt for a confident stride, and the subtle train sweeps gracefully behind. The CD728 fits closest to the body of any silhouette in the current Ladivine collection, and the construction is engineered to provide shape rather than rely on a smaller dress size for fit.

Fabric & Detail

The Ladivine CD728 is constructed on a delicate but stable fine mesh base, embellished with hand-applied sequins, faceted beads, and crystal accents across the entire surface. The mesh fades into the nude underlay so the embellishment appears to sit directly on the body, while the underlay itself provides the necessary opacity through critical areas like the bust, midsection, and seat. In the Mauve colorway, the mesh and underlay carry a soft pink-mauve tone that flatters fair to medium complexions and reads romantic under warm lighting. In Silver Nude, the underlay is closer to a champagne-skin tone, which creates a more universal, barely-there effect that flatters across a wider range of skin tones.

Detailing on the Ladivine CD728 is unrelentingly maximalist in the best way. The beading is layered — small seed beads, slightly larger faceted crystals, and shaped sequins are arranged in a deliberate pattern that catches light dynamically rather than producing a uniform sparkle. A concealed back zipper is integrated cleanly into the bodice structure, and the back of the gown features additional embellishment that continues the visual story from behind.

Style & Occasion

The Ladivine CD728 is engineered for high-impact formal occasions where you want the gown itself to be the visual headline — black tie weddings as a guest, formal galas, charity benefit dinners, pageant evening wear, and red-carpet adjacent events. The Mauve colorway works beautifully for spring, summer, and early autumn events, while Silver Nude is a year-round neutral that pairs particularly well with winter lighting and cool venue palettes. Style the Ladivine CD728 with clean strappy heels in a metallic or nude tone, minimal jewelry (the gown carries the visual weight already), and a sleek polished hairstyle — a low chignon, a sleek high ponytail, or polished waves. Avoid heavy necklaces and bracelets; let a single pair of statement earrings be the only accent.
