About MeThe silk of this dress has been woven to produce an all over thick corded fabric known as grosgrain. The pale colour and ribbed texture of the dress acts as an interesting contrast to the soft, deep wine-coloured silk velvet of the jacket, creating an extremely glamorous and sumptuous evening ensemble.


More About Me

The silk of the dress was woven to produce an all-over thick corded fabric (grosgrain), the colour and texture of which contrasts with the deep wine silk velvet jacket.
