White Sculpted Bustier Gown with Black Chiffon Skirt

Architecture above, air below. This gown sets a sculpted white bustier against a black chiffon skirt that never stops moving, and the tension between the two is what makes it unforgettable. It is a red carpet piece through and through, designed for the woman who wants to be photographed from every angle.

The bustier is cut from white spacer fabric and shaped into wide, flared shoulder wings that stand away from the body like folded paper. A jewel-embellished waistband with dark floral motifs marks the transition to the skirt. Below it, layers of black chiffon fall long and loose, parting at the front and sweeping into a train that keeps moving long after she stops.

Fabric

The bustier is spacer fabric, a three-dimensional knit with a cushioned, sculptural body that holds shape without heavy interfacing and feels light and comfortable on the skin. The skirt is chiffon, a sheer, lightweight fabric that floats and moves with the body.

Care

Hand wash cold (max 30°C / 86°F), inside out, with a mild detergent for delicates. Do not soak for more than a few minutes. Do not wring or twist. Press out water by rolling the piece in a clean towel. Dry flat in the shade, reshaping while damp. Professional dry cleaning is also suitable. Avoid rubbing over crystals, beading and hardware; spot clean around them gently if needed. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Press chiffon on a low setting with a pressing cloth, or steam lightly. Store on a padded hanger in a breathable cotton garment bag, away from direct sunlight.
