Conceived through an unusual creative process, this piece testifies to its creator's virtuosity with its special pairing of fabric and pattern combined in a radiant palette. It is a magnificent and luminous silk satin, one of the finest fabrics available. The tartan pattern, always a fashion favorite because it reflects classic elegance while fitting perfectly into contemporary style, is typically used for heavy garments made of wool yarn; however, when combined with such a light and luminous fabric, it takes on an unusual and completely unique charm. By its very nature, the fabric reflects light, enhancing the amber yellow—the undisputed protagonist—accompanied by black, red, and taupe that repeat in the checks at regular intervals. The silhouette is simple, the cut essential, with a round neckline set into the seam and a small vertical opening at the back closed by a small dome button.
