Power Sheath
$350.00
Step into the room feeling polished, supported, and completely free and comfortable. The Power Sheath is a contemporary black sheath dress with the lift and shaping of a full-support bra built directly into the garment-no separate bra, underwire, hooks, or tight band around your ribs.
The fitted silhouette follows your curves without relying on rigid foundation wear. Hidden support seams and smart textile panels provide secure support for fuller busts from DD through L cup, while patented Body Responsive Fit™ adapts more naturally to everyday hormone and weight fluctuations.
A crossover V-neck frames the neckline without exposing separate bra straps or edges. Three-quarter sleeves provide polished upper-arm coverage, while the knee-length hem keeps the dress appropriate for professional settings, dinners, events, and evenings out.
Made primarily from soft organic cotton, the Power Sheath gives you Embrago’s signature hug of support while remaining breathable and comfortable enough for an entire day. Wear it with pumps and a blazer for work, add jewelry for dinner, or style it with flats for understated everyday elegance.

A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER
Why I made the
Power Sheath
I designed the Power Sheath for the days when I want the confidence and authority of a beautifully fitted dress with a classic silhouette without putting my body through the discomfort that usually comes with one.
Traditional sheath dresses often assume that a separate structured bra will create the shape underneath. That means underwire, a tight chest band, hooks, straps, and constant adjusting before the dress even goes on. With the Power Sheath, the support is already part of the design.
I love the balance of this dress. The close, streamlined fit feels strong and sophisticated, while the soft cotton and hidden support engineering let you breathe, sit, work, dine, and move comfortably.
It is the dress I would choose for an important meeting, a presentation, dinner, or any day when I want to feel powerful without feeling restricted.
KAREN POIRIER · FOUNDER, INVENTOR & DESIGNER
One piece, many usages.
This style can be worn on many occasions. Tap any one to see what pairs with it for that occasion.
Work and executive dressing
Pair it with pumps, a structured jacket, or understated jewelry for meetings, presentations, interviews, and professional events. The built-in support creates a clean neckline without visible bra straps or lines.
Travel
The pull-on, wire-free design eliminates underwire, hooks, and a tight chest band during long journeys. Pack one dress that can work for a meeting, dinner, or evening event.
Work to dinner
Wear it as a polished daytime sheath, then remove the jacket and add earrings, heels, or a statement accessory for dinner.
Everyday elevated
Wear it with flats, boots, or a cardigan when you want a complete, sophisticated outfit without coordinating a separate bra, top, and skirt.
Cocktail events and celebrations
The black crossover neckline and fitted silhouette provide an easy foundation for evening styling without requiring a separate bra underneath.
Conferences and presentations
Three-quarter sleeves and the knee-length silhouette offer professional coverage, while the wire-free construction helps you remain comfortable during long periods of sitting or standing.
THE QUESTIONS
What women ask before the first day without a bra.
Nobody buys this on faith. These are the questions that come up most - answered the way we'd answer them on the phone.
Will the Power Sheath really support a large or heavy bust without a bra?
–
Yes. Hidden support seams and smart textile panels are engineered directly into the dress to lift and shape fuller busts from DD through L cup. The support normally provided by a full-support bra is built into the garment, without underwire, hooks, or a tight elastic band around your ribs.
How is the Power Sheath different from the Bra-Free Body Con?
+
The Power Sheath has a polished, professional sheath silhouette with three-quarter sleeves and a hem that falls at the most flattering point just above the knee. It is designed to move easily between work, presentations, dinners, and events.
The Bra-Free Body Con is closely fitted and has a more overt little-black-dress look. Choose the Power Sheath for professional versatility and greater arm coverage, or the Body Con for a sexier statement dress.
Is the dress appropriate for work?
+
Yes. Its three-quarter sleeves, knee-length hem, black color, and streamlined silhouette make it suitable for offices, meetings, presentations, conferences, and professional events. Add a blazer when you want a more formal look.
Can I wear it to dinner or an evening event?
+
Yes. Remove your daytime jacket and add heels, jewelry, or a wrap to transition the dress into an evening look. Because the bust support is built in, there are no separate bra straps or bra edges competing with the neckline.
What is the neckline like?
+
The dress has a V-neck with wide crossover detailing. The layered neckline creates visual structure across the bust while maintaining a clean, sophisticated finish.
Where does the hem fall?
+
The hem is designed to fall just at or above the knee. The exact position will vary according to your height and body proportions.
Do I need to wear shapewear underneath it?
+
Shapewear is not required for bust support. The built-in construction provides lift and shaping through the upper body. You may still wear your preferred undergarments based on your personal comfort and desired finish.
How should I choose my size?
+
Measure around the fullest point of your bust and compare the measurement with the Embrago Size Chart. Embrago garments are cut more generously through the bust than conventional Misses clothing, so your Embrago size may be smaller than the size you usually purchase.
When between sizes, choose the smaller size for firmer support or the larger size for a more relaxed fit.
Will the dress adapt if my body changes?
+
Body Responsive Fit™ is designed to accommodate natural bust and body fluctuations more comfortably than a rigid bra cup-and-band structure. This can be especially useful during hormone changes, perimenopause, postpartum changes, or moderate weight fluctuations.
What about nipple coverage and modesty?
+
The dress is unpadded, allowing it to maintain a clean silhouette without foam or unnecessary bulk. Many customers may find the substantial organic-cotton jersey provides enough coverage on its own. Optional No-Show Cup Inserts or companion discs can be added for greater invisibility.
Will the built-in support wash out over time?
+
The support comes from the engineered seams and smart textile panels rather than relying only on a tight elastic chest band. Machine wash on a gentle, cold cycle, then hang or lay flat to dry to protect the garment’s shape and structure.
Is the fabric suitable for sensitive skin?
+
The main body fabric is predominantly soft, breathable organic cotton made with yarn certified to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100. The design also eliminates underwire and a tight elastic underbust band pressing directly against the skin.
