Riette has a separate bodice and skirt.
The skirt is a layer of ivory chiffon over a layer of gold crepe satin, both cut in handkerchief tails.
The bodice is cut in an asymmetric shape which is stunning and very flattering. Even the buttons and loops down the back are off centre.
Trailing ivy is embroidered down the bodice and then continues onto the skirt.
The photo of the back view was taken during a fitting in my showroom, before the embroidery was added.
