A divine structure. A massive painting is needed to create the full landscape of the Bustle Dress. Inspired by 1930’s dressing gowns, the dress is snug in the bosom and open in the front; flaring out in movement. Elegant and sexy, it is a feminine landscape that captures all the geographic curves.
Bustle up for sass or down for elegance, to coffee in jeans, to the pool over a bathing suit or garnishing a sleek gown to the opera. It all works with the Bustle Dress. A client bought one to wear to the beach on holidays and she reported that many children followed her down the beach. Pick one colour for the polka dot bubbles and Yáahl, G̱úud,Tsai will procure the rest.
