| 100% heavy, luxurious, hand-woven cotton ikat fabric. We have this fabric especially custom-woven for us locally, one tiny batch at a time. You will not find this unique, top-quality, couture fabric anywhere else! This fabric is also available in pearly white, kissed with a whisper of silver.
The fabric and workmanship of the dress are pristine and of the quality you'd expect to find in an exclusive bridal boutique for 3 or 4 times the price. We are able to offer this price only because you can buy direct from us, we're in Bali where our overhead is low, and we can buy this fabric direct from the weaver.
Our charming Wing Bust style was made by studying an original from the 50's designed by the brilliant Alfred Shaheen. The lines are ingeniously flattering and the "wings" at the bust dramatic and whimsical. Waist is flatteringly dropped just a bit. Note the alluring ruching above the bust. Clinging bodice, boned cups.
Included with the dress is a matching halter strap, but it's also stunning worn strapless.
The metallic effect in the fabric is subtle and not high-shine. In fact, in some lighting, the fabric shows no shine at all. We suggest you request a swatch before purchasing to see it "in person". |
