WHAT'S NEW IN THE GOWN GALLERY?

'Phaedra' is actually separates: a top and skirt offering you some options after the big day.  This gown was created out of many yards of tea-dyed cotton tulle hand pleated over appliques of Chantilly lace.  A row of precious white and gray stones act as buttons down the front of the bodice.  The skirt is silk chiffon with a tulle drape.  The back shows a strip of hook and eye closures--the kind used in sportswear, hinting something this delicate and diaphanous would be as awesome with jeans as the pearl and crystal jewelry above . . .
