- Model: Virginia
Virginia is a short, fitted evening dress made for the woman who likes to stand out. The strapless sweetheart neckline and sculpted bodice trace the figure closely, while a run of feathers gives the design movement and a real sense of occasion. It is bold without being loud — a confident choice for a cocktail party, a gala, or any evening where you want to be remembered.
The bodice is cut from black duchess satin, a weighty Italian fabric with a soft sheen that holds its shape and flatters the waist. The strapless sweetheart neckline sits cleanly across the bust, and the back is cut on the same straight line for a clean, balanced look. The short, fitted skirt keeps the focus on the silhouette, while feathers in a rich purple plum tone trim the design, catching the light as you move and lifting the dress from simple to striking. Each piece is finished by hand in our studio, and Virginia can also be made in a different colour or fabric on request, so the same shape can be tailored to your event.
