AMAPOLA

THE STORY 

AMAPOLA is velvet cut short and worn bold. The mini is shaped in deep poppy-red pile, its off-shoulder sweetheart neckline framing the collarbones in the manner of the great mid-century couturiers. The sleeves tell the modern half of the story: long, transparent, and scattered with fine beadwork that catches light like evening rain on petals. Fitted through the body and finished clean at the hem, it is the red dress in its most concentrated form — a flower at full bloom, picked at the perfect hour. 

FABRIC & COMPOSITION 

Couture velvet — 82% viscose, 18% silk; sheer beaded sleeves on stretch tulle — 90% polyamide, 10% elastane; fully lined body. 

STYLING NOTES 

Black patent pump or velvet sandal; ears bare, lips to match the dress. For winter birthdays, festive dinners, and evenings designed to be remembered in red. 

CARE 

Professional dry clean only, velvet specialist preferred. Hang on a padded hanger; never fold velvet. Steam from a distance, never touching the pile.
