Navy Rose Claudia Gown
Introducing the Navy Rose Claudia Gown, a 40s Film Noir loungewear-inspired maxi dress in a romantic floral print. This version is brand new for Spring/Summer 2025 and availability will be extremely limited. Designed exclusively for us as part of the Alexandra King for Deadly is the Female Collection.
The Navy Rose Claudia Gown is a draped Chiffon dress with sash tie waist. It features a V neck which can be either modest or more daring, depending on how you tweak the gathers that run through the body of the dress. There is also a split in the front so you can flash just a hint of leg as you walk! The chiffon fabric features a romantic white rose print on a navy background. The chiffon is ever so slightly sheer, so you may prefer to wear a slip underneath. You'll also find hidden pockets - our all-time favourite finishing touch!
About the Claudia Dress
The Claudia Dress perfectly combines our desire to look glamorous but still be comfortable! Cleverly designed, the dress is one size fits most, up to a 46" bust. This is because the dress is cut with lots of fabric through the body, which drapes beautifully. The matching sash belt gathers everything in for an elegant hourglass shape when you tie it at the waist. You can choose how and where you tie the sash for a fit tailored to you. This ingenious design means you can pretty much always grab this dress and throw it on! The transformation from unflattering smock shape to luxuriously draped dress has to be seen to be believed! Tying the sash is easy - simply wrap it around your body once or twice (it's up to you!) and knot it. Just try to ensure the sash isn't twisted and that it is lying flat.

Inspiration
Inspired by a dress worn by Barbara Stanwyck in the 1944 Film Noir drama Double Indemnity and lots of classic loungewear from the era. We gave our version the Deadly treatment to vamp it up even more!
