The Alya Dress is a floor length gown with a short cape instead of a sleeve, cut in a metallic effect fabric that catches the light as you move.

The cape falls from the shoulder and finishes at the elbow, which is the length that matters. A short cape should always fall past the widest part of the upper arm, because one that stops above it draws a line exactly where nobody wants one. There is no seam under the arm, so nothing grips and nothing creases. It is lined with a breathable lining for extra comfort.

Wear it to a wedding, a gala, an awards dinner or a formal evening where you want coverage with movement.

Fit note: a cape covers without enclosing, so the arm is free. If you are between sizes, we recommend the larger.

The navy is shown on a model of 172cm wearing a size XS, which measures 93cm bust, 73cm waist and 152cm from shoulder to hem, or 36 1/2, 28 3/4 and 59 3/4 inches. The other colours are shown on a model of 178cm wearing a size S, which measures 96cm bust, 76cm waist and 153cm from shoulder to hem, or 37 3/4, 30 and 60 1/4 inches.

Does a cape cover the arms?

From the front and in every photograph, yes, completely. It falls over the shoulder and the upper arm to the elbow. What it does not do is enclose the arm, which is why it is the coolest way we know to be covered.

Is it available in larger sizes?

Yes. This style runs from XS to 2XL, which is further than most of our range, and the skirt is cut generously through the hip at every size, from 119cm at XS to 142cm at 2XL.

Is it long enough for someone tall?

It is shown here on a model of 178cm and reaches the floor, at 153cm from shoulder to hem in a size S. If you are taller than that and plan to wear a heel, write to us before you order and we will check it against your height.

If you are choosing between sleeve shapes, read our ranking of sleeve lengths.

We measure every garment individually to help you choose your best fit.

How to measure yourself

Delivery

Baruni use international couriers to deliver your orders. This typically takes 1 to 2 days from order in the UAE, and 3 to 5 days for other countries. We usually dispatch within 24 hours.

If you leave your email address at checkout, we will send you a tracking number as soon as your order leaves us, so you can follow its progress.

We also write to you before we ship, to check the size you have chosen is the right one for you. If you think it may not be, reply to that email with your measurements and we will confirm before your dress leaves the atelier.

Shipping costs

Complimentary delivery on all orders over $300.

UAE Free
Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait VAT on delivery
UK, Europe, US $30

Please note that duty charges now apply to shipments to the US, collected by the courier on delivery.

High courier fees mean we charge specific shipping rates for Libya, Israel, Iraq and certain other countries. If you are unsure whether yours is one of them, write to us before you order and we will confirm the rate.

Returns

You have 15 days from receiving your order to send a piece back to us. It must be unworn and unaltered, with its tags, labels and packaging.

Write to info@baruni.co with your order number and we will send you the return address. Return shipping is arranged and paid by you, and our original delivery cost is deducted from the refund.

Full price pieces are refunded to your original payment method.

Outlet pieces are not refunded. They are returned for store credit, valid for one year on anything on the site.

If a size is not right, message us before you send it back. We can often tell you which size to take instead.

For more detail, see our Terms and Conditions. Any questions, write to info@baruni.co.
