Looking Your Way Velvet Bow Mini Dress vs Forever Royalty Velvet Midi Dress

Buy the Looking Your Way mini for a party look with a defined waist, bow detail and a forgiving smocked back. Buy the Forever Royalty midi for a longer, sleeker velvet dress with a V-neck, padded cups and a back zipper that holds its shape. The mini is the more decorative, playful pick; the midi is the more streamlined, body-skimming one. Both use the same 95% polyester, 5% spandex velvet shell over a polyester lining, so expect similar stretch and similar care needs.

• Choose the Looking Your Way mini if you want a short, fit-and-flare velvet dress with a square neck, wide straps and a smocked back that flexes with you.
• Choose the Forever Royalty midi if you want a longer, ruched velvet dress with built-in padded cups and a zipped back for a smoother, more structured fit.
