For me this Paquin gown is a special piece simply because it reminded me of my early childhood ...sitting in a garden with grandma and reading "One thousand and one nights". I wanted to be Scheherazade and this was the dress i had envisioned. Sitting on layers upon layers of tulle, telling tales to a very powerful king.
The gown is lined with silk crepe and has three layers of tulle. The top layer is hand embroidered with silver and blue thread creating a delicate flower motif that runs horizontally around the dress creating three tiers. The bustier is filled with this very delicate floral embroidery. It is truly a dress for a princess or at the very least for a very special moment.
