Arabic Evening Dresses with an Off-Shoulder Neckline in Wine - Wholesale
When a request arrives with فساتين سهرة أوف شولدر لون ماروني in it, the useful first question is not the price. It is which of these attributes the buyer actually intends to sell on.
In production these are off-shoulder evening dresses, cut in wine. A sheath evening dress is straight and close, with a walking vent at the back and a lining that has to be cut a few millimetres shorter than the shell so it does not hang below the hem.
An off-shoulder band has to be cut on the bias and held with elastic or a stay; a straight-cut band will gape the moment the wearer lifts her arms. Wine and maroon are the safest deep tones for a beaded bodice, because a bead that is a shade off does not read as a mistake.
What Has To Be Specified
- Block: Sheath bodice, fitted on a real model at the middle size before grading.
- Detail: Off-Shoulder. An off-shoulder band has to be cut on the bias and held with elastic or a stay; a straight-cut band will gape the moment the wearer lifts her arms.
- Colour: Wine, with a lab dip approved against a physical swatch under both D65 and warm indoor light.
- Bodice structure: say whether the bodice is boned, fused, or soft. This single line decides the fit, the price and the packing.
- Lining: state bodice lining, skirt lining and whether the skirt is bagged out at the hem.
- Closure: name the type and position - invisible zip, lace-up back, or covered button placket.
- Sizing: give the size run, the grade rule and the fit model. A Gulf 2XL is not a European 2XL.
- Care: dry-clean-only is normal here; if the trim cannot survive solvent, say so before the label is printed.

Beading is quoted per panel and bought per gram. A 15% allowance sounds generous until the third size run lands.

Two rolls of the same colour name will not match. Buy one lot, keep a roll reference with the order, and cut the whole run from it.
Options We Can Build To
- Beading: hand-applied, machine-guided, or replaced with embroidery at a lower density and a lower price.
- Detail alternatives on the Off-Shoulder: scaled up, reduced to a plain panel, or moved to the back for a cleaner front.
- Beading: hand-applied, machine-guided, or replaced with embroidery at a lower density and a lower price.
