This is a new design for 2008. The fabric is taffeta with embroidered swirls in chocolate and gold. The bodice is laced and has a point at the front adn back of the waist area.

The skirt is actually based on origami. It has ten panels which are all cut with the same pattern and take 11m of fabric. This is then sewn to create the all over drapes. The underskirt is in a fresh colour which just peeps out below the main skirt, this has 10m of fabric. Basically I think this dress takes a fantastic fabric and enhances it to be a real talking point!
