Navy Bridesmaid Dresses: Shona Joy La Lune in Midnight

Shona Joy’s navy bridesmaid colour is Midnight, a true deep navy in La Lune satin with a soft sheen. Five new La Lune styles arrived in Midnight at Coveti in October 2026: the Lace Back, the Long Sleeve Gathered, the Ruched Halter, the Off Shoulder Tie and the Gathered One Shoulder. With the Plunged Cross Back we already carry, that makes six Midnight necklines in one fabric, from a covered long sleeve to a deep plunge. All are cut from 58% LENZING ECOVERO viscose and 42% viscose, so the shade matches perfectly across the group. Fabric, length and fit details below come from Shona Joy’s own product notes.

What colour is Shona Joy Midnight?

Midnight is a dark, inky navy with a slightly blue cast in daylight and an almost black depth by evening. It is not a bright royal blue and not a grey navy. In satin, the highlights glow blue while the folds stay deep, which is why it looks expensive in photographs. Navy suits every season and nearly every venue: it is formal enough for a black tie evening, calm enough for a church and crisp beside white flowers, gold detail and a classic ivory wedding dress.

La Lune Lace Back Maxi Dress in Midnight

The La Lune Lace Back Maxi Dress in Midnight is one of the most searched La Lune styles. It has a cowl neckline, ruching at the waist, a low open back and a lace up tie at the back that adjusts the fit. The fit is close through the bust and waist, and Shona Joy recommends sizing up for a more comfortable fit, especially if you are between sizes. It measures 152cm from the top of the strap to the hem on an AU8, and the straps adjust.

La Lune Long Sleeve Gathered Maxi Dress

The La Lune Long Sleeve Gathered Maxi Dress is the covered option. An asymmetrical neckline with a fold over collar sits above ruching at the side front, the long sleeves finish with a cuff and tie, and the maxi skirt has a split for movement. It is fitted through the bust and waist and slim through the rest of the body, and it measures 150cm from the highest shoulder point to the hem on an AU8. Choose it for a winter wedding, a church ceremony and any bridesmaid who prefers covered arms.

La Lune Ruched Halter Maxi Dress in Midnight

The La Lune Ruched Halter Maxi Dress in Midnight ties at the neck with long, wide halter straps and has a cut out at the waist. The skirt is cut on the bias, and the dress is fitted through the bust and slim through the body. The halter can be tied higher for support, and in Midnight the cut out reads as a subtle flash of skin rather than a statement.

La Lune Off Shoulder Tie Maxi Dress

The La Lune Off Shoulder Tie Maxi Dress combines an off shoulder neckline with long sleeves cut on the bias and adjustable halter ties at the neck, which keep the neckline in place. The skirt is cut on the bias too. Shona Joy describes the fit as relaxed yet flattering, with a straight shape that glides over the body. It gives sleeves without the formality of a high neck, and it suits a bridesmaid with beautiful shoulders.

La Lune Gathered One Shoulder Maxi Dress

The La Lune Gathered One Shoulder Maxi Dress has an asymmetrical neckline with ruching at the bust and waist, an invisible side zip and a bias cut maxi skirt. It is fitted through the bust and waist and measures 150cm from the shoulder seam to the hem on an AU8. The gathering gives shape without a corset, and the single shoulder balances well beside the halter and off shoulder styles in a mixed line up.

La Lune Plunged Cross Back Maxi Dress in Midnight

Already at Coveti, the La Lune Plunged Cross Back Maxi Dress in Midnight has a low plunging neckline with a ruched bust, an exaggerated empire waist and an open back crossed by wide straps. It completes the set as the most revealing of the six, and it is the natural choice for a maid of honour who wants a little more drama.

Navy for the maid of honour

For a maid of honour who should stand out while staying in the palette, the Stellar Lurex Plunged Neck Maxi Dress in Midnight is a metallic jersey of 76% polyamide, 21% metallic fibre and 3% elastane. It has a plunged, gathered neckline and open back with a twist knot at the front, and it sits close to the body with stretch. The metallic thread catches the light in a way satin cannot, but the colour is the same deep navy. The Campbell Ruffle Draped Maxi Dress in Midnight is another way to vary texture in the same shade.

How to style a navy bridal party

• Navy and gold. Gold jewellery, gold cutlery and candlelight make Midnight look warm and festive. Add the La Lune Lace Back Maxi Dress in Gold for one attendant.
• Navy and cream. A single bridesmaid in the La Lune One Shoulder Cowl Back Maxi Dress in Cream links the bride to the navy line.
• Navy and blush. Pink roses and peonies soften Midnight for a spring wedding.
• Mixed necklines, matched fabric. All six La Lune styles share one satin, so let each bridesmaid choose her shape and the colour will still match.

Fit, length and care

Shona Joy uses Australian sizing, which matches UK sizing. The lengths quoted above are taken from an AU8, so plan a hem for shorter bridesmaids, and use a seamstress who is comfortable with satin cut on the bias. Our Shona Joy fit guide explains the label’s sizing. The Midnight La Lune styles ask for a cold hand wash with mild soap, no soaking, wringing and tumble drying, and drying flat in the shade. They are also dry cleanable. The Stellar Lurex dress is dry clean only.
