257 | Calcified Bloom
"Found in a cedar chest in the Weaver’s District. The silk had already begun to tell its own story before I ever touched it with a needle. I only gave it a shape so it could keep speaking."
STRUCTURE
Shell: Heavyweight antique silk; naturally washed and stained to a bone-and-tea palette.
Lining: Unbleached natural cotton for a grounded, breathable interior.
Detailing: Layered off-the-shoulder chiffon ruffles and matching hip peplum. Frogged closures at the chest; seed pearl droplets dangling down the center front.
Internal: Precise 18-panel construction reinforced with synthetic whalebone; cut for a 5 cm waist reduction with an architectural flare at the hip to awaken a dramatic, historic silhouette.
Lacing: Curling cream ribbon through reinforced gold-tone grommets.
SIZE
She’s most at home on bodies sized XS to S.
