x REVOLVE Tonya Gown
Michael Costello - $201
This floor-length gown employs a liquid-like viscose-rayon blend that pools heavily around the frame, anchored by a structural draped neckline and thin, spaghetti-strap supports. The silhouette relies on a cinched waist—defined by a detachable self-tie sash—to break up the verticality of the skirt, which falls into a slight train. It is a study in high-sheen evening wear that favors fluid, body-skimming movement over rigid construction.
Safety Rating: Poor: Chemically Processed Semi-Synthetics
Analysis: The garment is composed of viscose and rayon, which require intensive chemical processing—often involving carbon disulfide—to convert wood pulp into fiber. The "dry clean only" designation further suggests a finish or fiber structure that is sensitive to water and potentially retains residual processing solvents.
