Effortlessly elegant — the kind of dress that turns heads without saying a word.

There's something quietly captivating about The Celeste. A sculpted pleated bodice that drapes softly over the shoulders, a defined high waist that flatters every figure, and a flowing pleated A-line skirt that moves with grace at every step. The batwing-style overlay adds a touch of romance and elegance — refined enough for a black-tie evening, soft enough for a daytime celebration. Whether you're attending a wedding, an anniversary dinner, or a milestone occasion, The Celeste is the dress that makes you feel like the most put-together woman in the room.

Sculpted. Graceful. Unforgettable.

What women are saying about their Celeste Dress

The most elegant dress I've ever owned

I bought this for my son's wedding and I cannot tell you how many compliments I got. The pleating is absolutely stunning in person — it catches the light so beautifully. The high waist is so flattering on my fuller figure and the batwing overlay drapes gracefully without looking dated. I cried a little when I saw myself in the mirror. At 58, I finally felt like the mother of the groom I'd hoped to be.

Perfect for our anniversary dinner

My husband and I celebrated our 35th anniversary and I wore this to dinner. He looked at me the way he did when we were dating. The apricot color is even prettier in person — soft and warm without washing me out. The fabric feels luxurious and the pleats fall beautifully. I'm felt absolutely radiant. Already thinking about wearing it again for the holidays.

Slightly long, but easily hemmed

The dress is beautiful and the quality is impressive. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is the length — I'm 5'3" and it pooled a bit on the floor. My tailor hemmed it for me and now it's perfect. If you're petite, just plan for that small adjustment. Everything else is wonderful — flattering, elegant, and the pleating is gorgeous.

Felt like a queen at the gala

I attended a charity gala in this dress and felt completely in my element. At 60, I worried it might be too dramatic for my age, but the cut is so elegant and the high waist is incredibly flattering. Several women asked where I bought it. The yellow is sunny and joyful without being too bold. Worth every dollar.

Elaine & Claire never lets me down

This is my sixth purchase from Elaine & Claire and the quality just keeps impressing me. The dress arrived beautifully packaged with a sweet handwritten note. The fabric drapes like a dream and the pleating held up perfectly after hanging it out. I bought the apricot for my granddaughter's wedding and felt so put-together all day.

Order your true size — fits beautifully

I was nervous about ordering online since I'm a size 12 now and sizing can be unpredictable. I followed the chart exactly and the XL fits me beautifully. The high waist hits in the perfect spot and the skirt has just the right amount of fullness. I wore it to a milestone birthday party and felt elegant and feminine all evening. Highly recommend.

Made me feel beautiful at 64

After 60 I started to feel like I was disappearing from the world of "pretty clothes." This dress brought all of that back. The cut is incredibly flattering, the pleats are so feminine and graceful, and the fabric has that lovely structured drape that real evening wear should have. I wore it to my husband's retirement dinner and he kept looking at me all night. Thank you for making something that makes women my age feel seen and beautiful.

Made me feel beautiful again

I bought this for my husband's retirement party and could not have made a better choice. After 60, I sometimes forget what it feels like to feel pretty. This dress reminded me. My daughter teared up when she saw me in it. Thank you for making something that fits real women and makes us feel like ourselves.

A quiet note from us

Elaine & Claire Boutique has always been shaped by care — in the small decisions, the long days, and the way we work side by side as mother and daughter. It’s always been about more than what you see on the surface.

Lately, we’ve chosen to slow down and look closely at what truly matters. To simplify, to protect what we’ve built, and to restore balance rather than push forward at all costs. The pieces you find here are part of that reset.

Every order supports the work happening behind the scenes and helps us steady this boutique for what comes next.

Thank you for being here, and for taking the time to read this.

Elaine & Claire 🤍
