Women's Black Gathered Midi Dress for Work
- Packed 1-2 business days
- In transit 4-6 business days
- Delivered Tracked all the way
A black dress with a sweetheart top, fine straps and a skirt gathered from a pointed dropped waist. It has enough structure to hold its shape through a long evening and no print on it to date it. The straps adjust at the back, which is the difference between a dress that sits right and one you keep pulling up.
- Sweetheart neckline over bustier-style seamed cups
- Thin straps with adjustable sliders at the back
- V-shaped dropped waistline at the front, gathered along the seam
- Full skirt with enough body to hold its flared shape
- Straight cut across the back with a centre seam
- Plain matte black, with the hem at mid-calf
- Colour: Black

Shipping, sizes & care
Shipping & returns
Shipping is complimentary Australia-wide and orders leave our door within 1 to 2 business days. If the piece is not right, you have 30 days from arrival to change your mind - send it back unworn with the tags on and we sort the rest.
Size guide
Sizes run in Australian numbers, from 6 through 22. If you are used to letter sizes: 6 is XS, 8 is S, 10 is M, 12 is L and 14 is XL - from there, 16 to 22 run 2XL through 5XL.
Unsure between two sizes? Write to info@mariasydney.com (Monday to Friday, 8am to 3pm AEST/AEDT) and we will help you pick.
Care guide
Every piece carries its care label inside. A cold, gentle wash keeps colours and shape at their best, and hanging it in the shade brings it back to form. A quick cool iron on the reverse smooths out travel creases.
Before you order
Questions, answered
If your question is not here, write to info@mariasydney.com and we will come back to you.
How long will my order take to arrive?
We pack and send within 1 to 2 business days, and the carrier takes 4 to 6 business days from there. That comes to 5 to 8 business days in total. Order before 2pm AEST/AEDT on a business day and the processing window starts the same day.
What does shipping cost?
Nothing. Shipping is free on every order, anywhere in Australia, with no minimum order value and no surcharge for regional, rural or remote addresses.
Where do you ship?
Within Australia only, to every state and territory. The checkout will not accept a delivery address outside Australia, so an overseas order cannot be placed by mistake.
Can I return it if it is not right?
Yes. You have 30 days from the day your order arrives, and you do not need to give a reason. The piece needs to be unworn, unwashed and undamaged, with the original tags still attached.
How do I track my parcel?
You receive a dispatch email with tracking the moment the parcel leaves us. Tracking can take up to 24 hours to show its first movement after dispatch, which is normal.
About us
A considered range
Maria Sydney started in 2026, named after the city we work from. We design for the occasions that fill an Australian year: weddings, long lunches, parties and the everyday in between - and we dress for the same calendar you do.
The range stays deliberately small, so each piece has room to be looked at closely rather than lost in a catalogue.
