Top keyhole neck dresses for women to consider: A keyhole neckline looks best when it’s proportionate to the dress silhouette and sits neatly at the center, so it reads polished rather than distracting. Once that’s right, choose based on length, sleeve type, and fabric finish for the occasion.
5 keyhole neck dresses for women on Myntra to shortlist by silhouette and fabric
These options are curated from Myntra, focusing on keyhole dresses across bodycon, sheath, and fit-and-flare shapes. Use the shortlist to compare sleeve structure, hem length, and fabric feel for day-to-night flexibility.
These five dresses share a similar “keyhole-neck focal point”, yet they land in very different wear zones—fit-and-flare for movement, bodycon for a defined silhouette, and velvet for a heavier, evening-leaning finish. A practical way to choose is to start with the silhouette (fit-and-flare vs bodycon), then factor in fabric care (viscose vs polyester blends vs velvet).

DressBerry Women Polyester Fit and Flare Dresses (green sugarcane textured dress) is positioned as a knee-length fit-and-flare with a keyhole neckline and tie-up surface detail, plus a “first wash dry clean” note. That makes it a good candidate for someone who wants a dress that can sit between casual and semi-dressed settings, while still treating the first wear as a trial for colourfastness and texture behaviour. Viscose and rayon-style fibres (including many plant-based regenerated fibres) are often described as prone to distortion when wet, so cautious first washes are a sensible signal even when later care is easier.
Anouk Women Embroidered Ethnic Dresses (red) leans more festive through embroidery and puff sleeves, but it stays in an above-knee fit-and-flare shape that’s generally easier to move in than bodycon. Since it’s viscose rayon and machine-wash listed, the main risk is rough handling—cold water, gentle cycles, and low agitation are widely recommended to reduce stretching or shrinkage in viscose.
StyleCast Women Floral Print Keyhole Neck Bell Sleeve Mini Dress (multicolour) is the most “light, styled, and quick” option: mini length, A-line shape, bell sleeves, and ruffle styling. Polyester tends to be comparatively straightforward to wash, but it can hold onto odour if reworn without airing out, so it usually suits occasional wear or days when the dress won’t be under heavy heat and friction. General polyester care guidance commonly recommends cooler water and gentle settings to reduce wear and static.

Tokyo Talkies Black Keyhole Neck Bodycon Dress is the most minimal on surface detail and the most silhouette-led, with a knee-length bodycon cut and a polyester-lycra blend (94/6). Stretch blends typically reward gentler washing (often cold, inside out) to protect elasticity and avoid surface abrasion, especially if the dress is fitted through high-friction zones like underarms and hips.
Freehand by The Indian Garage Co Velvet Bodycon Maxi Dress (blue) is the heaviest-looking category here because velvet changes how light hits the garment, even in a simple sheath/bodycon line. For polyester velvet, many care guides suggest cold water, a gentle cycle, and using a mesh bag (plus avoiding wringing) to protect the pile and reduce crushing or distortion.
Choosing without overthinking
- Most movement-friendly silhouettes: DressBerry and Anouk (fit-and-flare shapes tend to feel less restrictive than bodycon).
- Most “defined” look: Tokyo Talkies (bodycon plus stretch blend).
- Most statement by print and sleeve shape: StyleCast (floral + bell sleeves + ruffles).
- Most evening-leaning fabric effect: Freehand velvet, because pile fabrics visually read richer under artificial light.
Pro-tips that match the fabrics
- For viscose rayon dresses, use cold water on a gentle cycle and avoid wringing; reshaping while damp can help maintain fit.
- For stretch blends (polyester-lycra), cooler washes and inside-out laundering help preserve elasticity and reduce surface wear.
- For velvet, reduce friction in the wash (mesh bag, delicate cycle) and avoid twisting; steaming between wears is often suggested instead of frequent washing.
