"Raffaella"
(Red/Gold Brocade) |
|
 |
 |
|
A version of the "Raffaella" design, cut to be on-the-shoulder. The gown is shown in a stunning red and gold brocade -
lightly corseted with back lacing. Inspired by the paintings of John William Waterhouse, this Pre-Raphaelite-style wedding dress has fitted undersleeves, which can be smooth or ruched, opaque or see-through. Or omitted completely! These are revealed beneath classic trumpet-shaped 'medieval' sleeves. The flat-fronted A-line skirt with a volume of fabric gathered into the
back flatters both the slimmest and more shapely brides.
|
It is possible to construct this gown in many fabrics, patterned and plain - duchesse satin, brocade, damask, dupion, velvet, zibilene, etc. The design can be kept streamlined and tailored, or embellished at the neckline, waistline or cuffs.
|
To order: The "Raffaella" design is £2100 to construct.
Your choice of fabric from our vast range will add from between £150 to £500,
depending on type - silk dupion, damask, brocade etc
This design can be varied and individualised
to each made-to-measure order. |
