Grace

This dress is an exercise in masterminding the silhouette of the body. I wanted to have the figured sculpted by the tiniest and most rigorous plissés. From the neck to the hem, there are hundreds of rows of individually pleated meters of silk creponne chiffon.

The strength was embodied by the Mother Armenia statue that looks over the capital of Yerevan, while the duality of beauty and nobility were inspired by none other than Grace Kelly. 

The Y-line silhouette is explored, creating an overall streamlined shape for the wearer. Extending from shoulder to shoulder, modesty was the aim in the front.

There is a sense of unabashed strictness to it; a rigidity that the plissé technique articulates. This is something that was highly intended, because the moment you turn your back, you are left exposed, but still in total control. 

With the detachable organza corset, you can decide how much of the back you should like to have gloriously displayed. It points back to the exposed cups of the Marilyn dress, giving that added touch of 50’s glamour

The raw, gathered edges of the fabric border around you, continuing the deconstructed narrative within these small details. A tight pencil skirt brings everything to a sumptuous halt. The plissés following all the way down to the hem, to make for a very artisanal punctuation.

Once your order is placed, we will reach out to you and organize a meeting to better understand your needs. A designated couture team member will then be scheduled to take your measurements.
 
Once these details have been recorded, pattern adjustments will commence. Following this, you will receive your first toile, or sample. A fitting will take place, and any necessary changes will be documented. The final step will result in you receiving your finished garment.
 
During this process, you will also be assigned a dedicated Couture Liaison, who will be available to you for all updates, questions, and needs you may have. They will communicate via email, WhatsApp, text, or calls – however, your preferences may be.
 
Although we allow for minor revisions to be made to the dress to better suit your body, extensive alternations to the original design are not permitted. You will have access to seamstresses during your fittings, however travel costs will be applied at the clients expense. If you may need items delivered in a shorter timeframe than the 90-day period, a rush fee will be applied.
