Maxine

Sale price$3,204.00

A striking study in texture rendered in vibrant pleated silk. Structured boning shapes a figure-hugging corset bodice with a sweetheart neckline, transitioning into a horizontally pleated drop waist and a dramatic, accordion-pleated skirt. Fluid, unpleated draped sleeves edged with hand-beading offer a soft balance to the gown's intricate, layered drapery.

Made to order in our atelier. Please allow up to 16 weeks for production.

How to measure your bust, waist and hip

I. Bust: Wearing a supportive bra without additive padding or push-up features, wrap the tape across your back and over the fullest part of the chest. Ensure the tape remains parallel to the floor for an accurate circumference. Note: This is distinct from your bra size.

II. Waist: Locate the narrowest point of your torso, typically three to four inches above the hip bone. If you have a shorter torso, this may sit closer to two inches above the bone. Find the natural indentation between the rib cage and the iliac crest. Keep the tape gently relaxed; do not hollow the stomach.

III. Hip: Guided by your natural silhouette, measure the fullest part of the hips and seat. The tape must remain perfectly level to capture the true curve.

Note: Measure while wearing your intended event undergarments. Keep the tape level and never constricting, to ensure you can move and sit comfortably.
