CUE Slinky Maxi Black Dress | Size 14, Gathered, Side Slits, Stretch, Formal

Cue Black Slinky Maxi Dress

Colour: Black

Size: 14

RRP: $330

If you are looking for a comfortable, slinky gathered maxi dress that can be worn to a multitude of events, then this is a great dress to consider

It is a long, stretched, lined dress with long sleeves, and a square-shaped neckline, gathering down the side and side slits at the bottom. 

The dress is fully lined and very comfortable to wear. 

Please note: The mannequin the dress is styled on is a size 8-10, and this dress is a size 14. It has been clipped at the back to account for the size difference. 

The dress is brand new with tags. The only small point I need to point out is the tag inside is slightly torn. The actual dress is in perfect condition. 

The dress is made in Australia, and the fabric is imported from Europe.

Main: 100% viscose

Lining: 94% Nylon, 4% Elastane

Hand Wash

CUE is a historic fashion achiever in the Australian world of fashion. In November 2019, CUE celebrated its significant milestone at the Sydney iconic Powerhouse Museum. An Australian fashion brand from the swinging '60s has grown, transformed, evolved and expanded over 50 years!

CUE is an award-winning, sustainable, ethical brand, now Australia's most prominent local fashion manufacturer.  Their brand started in London as a youth, music-inspired brand by law student Rod Levis. 

In the 1980s, CUE expanded its retail store to over 100 stores across Australia and New Zealand. At this time, the brand reflected a young and edgy approach with music-centric themes and neon signs and drew a hip crowd with a maximalist style reminiscent of the 80s. Adorned by celebrities on TV, the clothing had sequins, shoulder pads and taffeta!

Yet in the late 80s, women started to climb the corporate ladder, and CUE was ready, willing and able to create the styles required by the 'everywomen.' CUE had evolved from a youth brand to an older demographic ready for work and everyday life of the 80's modern woman. 

This evolution called for a rebranding, and "CUE DESIGN" was born. Everything about the brand, from the store aesthetics to the styles, fabric and design, represented the change from youth-brand to clothes for the elevated woman. The new brand became synonymous with carefully curated colour palettes, imported fabrics and a quality Australian manufacturer. 

The '90s were about keeping up with the world's desire for luxury. The fabrications, styles and quality continued to reflect this. CUE partnered with MYER as an exclusive fashion brand concept in every store. It quickly became the most successful brand sold in the iconic department store. Industry awards started piling up. 

In 2008 the ECA (Ethical Clothing Australia) accredited CUE as a local and ethical manufacturer. By the end of 2009, ECA confirmed that CUE was Australia's most prominent local fashion manufacturer. 

Since then, CUE has won multiple industry awards for its dedication to ethical fashion and quality, e-commerce and technical innovation. 

It is quite evident that CUE has shaped the fashion industry in Australia and continues to do so with a conscious and ethical mind.
