Ma Violette

Posted on

One of my Holy Grails is the Violette Silkstone, so when I saw this beautiful floral silk chiffon from Japan I was immediately smitten with it.  I don’t typically make gowns, so I decided to use it to make this chic little bubble dress. 

The bodice and underskirt are made from a beautiful bottle green silk dupioni woven with deep purple, giving the silk an iridescent shimmer.  The overskirt is made from the sprigged silk chiffon.  A chiffon band highlights the strapless bodice and a chic bow is the perfect finishing touch.
