The Lavinia Aurelia
There's a reason an evening dress like The Lavinia Aurelia gets saved, shared and re-worn — it's built for your next formal evening.
Cut from hand-placed sequins that sparkle from every angle. The mermaid silhouette hugs the curves before flaring into a dramatic hem. It pairs a poised halter neckline, a clean sleeveless cut, a floor-length sweep for full-evening elegance with figure-smoothing ruching. Fully finished seams, a considered fit through the bodice and a hem that hangs the way it should — the details you notice the moment you put it on.
Available in 5+ colors including Gold, Black, Green and Champagne, it's easy to match your palette or dress code. From galas to formal dinners, an evening gown this refined earns permanent wardrobe status — timeless enough to re-wear, distinctive enough to be remembered. Style it with metallic heels and minimal jewelry for your next formal evening, or soften it with a wrap for the ceremony. It photographs beautifully indoors and out, and moves easily from your next formal evening to the celebration after.
At Guest & Gown, we design occasion wear that photographs beautifully and feels even better in person — The Lavinia Aurelia is no exception.

Fabric & Care
Every Guest & Gown dress is fully lined, with an invisible back zipper and enough structure to skim your silhouette — never cling, never turn sheer in daylight or flash photography. The exact fabric of this dress is listed in the description above. Care: cold hand wash or dry clean, and a low-heat steam to release travel creases.
Shipping & Delivery
Your order ships within 48 hours and arrives in 7–12 business days across the U.S. — a few extra days internationally — with tracking emailed the moment it leaves. Attending a wedding soon? We recommend ordering at least two weeks ahead, so you can try everything on calmly.
