Brooklyn Dress in Burnt Orange Satin - Strappy Slip Bridesmaid Dress
£139.00
Brooklyn Dress in Burnt Orange Satin — Strappy Slip Bridesmaid Dress
Burnt orange doesn't do quiet entrances. Warm, rich, and completely striking — it's the bridesmaid colour for brides who want their wedding party to be genuinely unforgettable. And the Brooklyn is the dress that carries it off effortlessly.
Subtly seductive and endlessly cool, the Brooklyn is a bias-cut satin slip dress with cross-back adjustable spaghetti straps and a detachable sash that can be worn at the waist or as a neck tie. The double-layered satin gives a smooth, non-cling finish that drapes beautifully and moves fluidly with every step. This is the dress that works as hard at the wedding as it does at every occasion that comes after.
Available in sizes XS–XL, full length approximately 114cm from waist to hem.
The Brooklyn in Burnt Orange works harder than your average bridesmaid dress because:
- Burnt orange is a statement, not a risk. Warm, rich, and incredibly striking — it photographs beautifully in natural light and pairs with terracotta, sage, ivory, gold, and warm neutrals.
- That detachable sash changes everything. Wear it at the waist for a defined silhouette, or as a neck tie for a completely different look. One dress, multiple ways to wear it.
- Cross-back adjustable straps. Comfortable, adjustable, and flattering — the cross-back design sits beautifully on a wide range of body types.
- Double-layered satin for a flawless finish. Smooth, non-cling, and beautifully weighted. No lining issues, no transparency concerns.
- Bias-cut for fluid movement. Skims where it should skim, drapes where it should drape. Never stiff, never clingy, always elegant.
- A dress you'll genuinely wear again. Cocktail party, race day, black tie dinner — the Brooklyn in Burnt Orange never struggles to find an occasion.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Brooklyn fits true to size with a relaxed slip fit. If you prefer a closer fit, size down. The adjustable cross-back straps also allow for some adjustment through the upper body.
The Brooklyn has a cross-back spaghetti strap design, making it best suited to nipple covers or a low-back bra with clips. It is not suitable for a standard bra. We recommend silicone nipple covers for the most seamless finish.
The Brooklyn comes with a detachable sash that can be styled in multiple ways — tied at the waist for a more defined silhouette, or worn as a neck tie for a completely different look. It gives each bridesmaid the freedom to style it slightly differently, which works really well in group photos. Visit our Brooklyn styling guide for inspiration.
The Brooklyn is a full-length maxi dress, approximately 114cm from waist to hem. It can be shortened by a seamstress if needed — alteration guidance is available here.
Burnt orange is especially stunning on warm and golden skin tones, but the depth and richness of this shade works beautifully across the spectrum. It pairs particularly well with gold jewellery and warm-toned accessories, and photographs beautifully in natural and outdoor light.
The Brooklyn is a strappy satin slip dress with cross-back spaghetti straps and a detachable sash — a relaxed, effortlessly cool silhouette. The Roma is a halterneck maxi with crossover neck ties. The Amelia is a thick-strap V-neck bias-cut maxi. All three are available in burnt orange and are designed to mix and match beautifully for a varied bridal party look.
Yes — order a Burnt Orange Satin fabric swatch before committing to a full bridal party order. Swatches are free, you just pay £1.50 postage. Burnt orange can read more red or more golden depending on your screen, so a swatch takes the guesswork out completely.
The Brooklyn is made from a double-layered 100% polyester satin. The double layer gives a smooth, non-cling finish with a beautiful weight and drape. It photographs beautifully in both natural and artificial light.
The Brooklyn in Burnt Orange is available in sizes XS, M, L, and XL. Size S is currently sold out — check back for restocks. The model is 5ft 9" and wears a size S for reference.
Burnt orange works beautifully with autumnal, botanical, rustic, earthy, and maximalist wedding themes. It pairs especially well with terracotta and sage, rust and ivory, warm neutrals, and gold tones. It also glows in outdoor and late summer ceremonies.
Absolutely. The Brooklyn is designed to mix and match with other Rewritten burnt orange styles. Pairing the Brooklyn's slip silhouette with the Roma's halterneck or the Amelia's thick-strap design is a great way to suit different bridesmaids' body types — and it photographs really well.
Wash at 30 degrees with similar colours, or dry clean. Use a hand steamer to remove creases — do not iron directly on the satin. We dye our fabric to our exact colour specifications. Slight colour variations can occur between dresses, so we recommend ordering all dresses for your bridal party at the same time from the same batch.
