The skirt of the dress is composed of two layers of silk chiffon and lined in silk.
The truly magnificent jacket, is set off by a slim raised collar , which draws together along the front of the neckline with two hook and eyes. The simple shoulder line, sets off the full length sleeves, which frame the elegant cropped box cut of the jacket. The raw silk jacket is fully embellished with matching glass beadwork, to match the dress and sits perfectly above the notched and pointed empire line cut of the dress. This jacket is fully lined in silk
The square cut neckline is framed by a simple shoulder line and short capped sleeves. The empire cut of the bust-line, is accented by soft gathered pleats and a matching detailed bow that runs along the base of the bust. The straight column cut of the dress is set off by single pleats that radiate from the base of the bust-line along the length of the dress, completing this piece in an iconic silhouette.
