The story

The top wraps the torso in soft folds while the skirt falls as a clean column in molten orange and gold. Nothing is stiff. Everything moves with the woman inside it.

It was cut for the moment the music changes, and it has not missed one yet.

01

Cloth released, then caught, then released again.

Gravity, negotiated with silk.

The wrap stays put through a whole evening of standing up and sitting down.

Model wearing an orange and gold draped two piece

Two pieces in theory, one long line in practice.

Wrapped, pinned, checked in the mirror, then released to the world.

The rest are spoken as you walk the room.

Molten orange and gold wrapped into a single line.The skirt falls as a clean column. The top does the speaking.Made for the moment the music changes.A gown that photographs like sculpture.Folds set by hand so they fall the same way twice.Orange chosen for candlelight, which is where it earns its keep.Column skirt, quiet hem, nothing to trip over.It moves a half second after she does, and that is the point.Gold at the waist where the folds change direction.For dinners that run past midnight and dancing that starts early.Silk heavy enough to hang, light enough to follow.It makes a hallway look like a stage.She should not have to think about it once it is on.Every fold was arranged on a body, not on a dress form.Warmth in the colour, calm in the cut.Finishes the evening looking like it began.Cut for the woman who intends to be in the middle of the photograph.
