How to Style the Star Rhinestone Open Back Mini Dress by Body Type
- Rectangle: Define your waist with a belt, a wrap silhouette, and bias cuts to introduce shape. The Star Rhinestone Open Back Mini Dress in Black builds shape through seaming rather than volume, so it creates a waist on a straight frame.
- Hourglass: The house cut is drafted for exactly this line, so take your usual size and let the seaming do the shaping.
- Tall: Column silhouettes and unbroken vertical lines elongate beautifully. Vertical seaming here enhances height without overpowering proportion.
- Petite: Koma places embellishment high, at the neckline and shoulder, which draws the eye up and lengthens a shorter frame. Mini and midi lengths need no alteration.

About David Koma
David Koma is a London house built on sculptural eveningwear, founded in 2009 by the Georgian-born designer of the same name. He took an MA at Central Saint Martins, led Mugler from 2013 to 2017, and is now creative director of Blumarine alongside his own label. The house is known for body-contouring construction, engineered crystal and metal embellishment, and precisely placed cutouts. Koma designs from the body outward, treating hardware as jewellery and cutting each piece to hold its line in motion. David Koma is a Luxury Handbags editor favourite for red-carpet dressing, black-tie evenings, and occasion wear, and a recurring choice for women buying ready-to-wear they intend to keep.
“Koma is one of the few designers who can put this much hardware on a garment and still have it read as tailoring. The Star Rhinestone Open Back Mini Dress holds its shape on the body, which is why it photographs the way it does.”
Gemma Deeks, Fashion Editor at Luxury Shoes
