Is the Versace Medusa '95 dress true to size?

A stretch sheath like this usually runs close to standard Italian sizing, which sits smaller than US sizing. Check the brand's size chart and measure your bust, waist and hips rather than ordering your usual US number.

What is the dress made of?

A stretch crepe blend of jersey, cotton and polyester. The elastane-type stretch is what lets a fitted sheath move with you; the polyester content is what keeps it from creasing badly.

Can I wear it to a wedding?

Yes for a cocktail or evening wedding, especially a city or destination one. The mini length and hardware make it too bold for black-tie or conservative daytime ceremonies.

How should I care for it?

Treat it as dry clean only unless the care label says otherwise. Polyester blends tolerate gentle hand washing, but the Medusa hardware and the dress's shape are safer with professional cleaning.

What shoes go with a mini sheath like this?

Strappy heels or pointed pumps keep the line long; ankle boots work for a edgier evening look. Avoid chunky platforms, which shorten a mini sheath.

Our take on the Versace Women's Medusa '95 Stretch Crepe Cocktail Dress

A sleeveless mini sheath from Versace's Medusa '95 line, cut from stretch crepe (a jersey, cotton and polyester blend) with a round neck and the house's Medusa hardware and print. It is a statement cocktail dress rather than a wardrobe basic: fitted through the body, short, and built to be noticed. The stretch blend gives it more give than a structured crepe, so it moves and packs better than a tailored sheath.
