One-of-a-kind magical mystical stunning caftan with silk charmeuse belt
...we've taken two of our stunning silk devoré fringed shawls and added a dreamy silk charmeuse belt to cinch the front. The belt goes around the waist and is inserted through two slits and can adjust to all sizes leaving the back free flowing.
Made with two stunning black shawls with contrasting golden, green and purple floral motif silk velvet burnout. Photos really aren't doing this beauty the justice it deserves as the purple velvet all along the border is reading black mostly but is in fact deep purple.
Burnout velvet gives off that magical stained glass window effect with a luxe quality that feels like a dream...all finished off with contrasting purple silk crochet fringe that dances beautifully
Overall length is 43" keeping in mind it will drape longer on the sides
100% Silk
Dry Clean
The velvet burnout process, or "Dévoré" as it is also referred, is achieved by applying an acid to a natural, protein fiber (silk) and natural non-protein fiber (rayon). The acid "burns out" the non-protein fiber leaving only the sheer woven silk and hence, creating elaborate and intricate designs. This fabrics is of the highest quality, and is very expensive to manufacture.
The art deco designs on the shawls used to make these beauties are based on 1920s prints and give an amazing stained glass glow when backlit. The silk part of the fabric becomes very sheer, almost transparent. Often referred to as "wearable art", I promise that once you lay your hands on one of these, you will not ever want to take it off.
