ARTEMISIA

 THE STORY 

ARTEMISIA balances two materials in one gesture. At the shoulders, bronze-olive satin folds into oversized sculptural bows — wings, epaulettes, punctuation — while below, the smoke-grey tulle skirt turns transparent and iridescent, embroidered with beaded branches that glint in shifting colour. Between them, the beaded bodice mediates. It is a gown painted in chiaroscuro: solid light above, luminous shadow below, drama held in perfect tension. 

FABRIC & COMPOSITION 

Sculptural bows in duchess satin — 100% polyester; bodice and skirt of iridescent bead-branch embroidery on smoke tulle — 90% polyamide, 10% elastane; partial lining 96% viscose, 4% elastane. 

STYLING NOTES 

Ears bare beneath the bows; hair drawn back entirely. For fashion galas, museum evenings, and photographs destined for print. 

CARE 

Professional dry clean only, couture specialist. Store boxed with the bows stuffed with tissue; never crush. Distant steam only on the tulle.
