The Poppy Gown is an exquisite couture two-piece. Pure silk chiffon is finely hand-embroidered with an intricate design of unfurling poppies, in shades of soft ivory and pale silver, rendered in glass beads, silk thread and hand-pleated tulle flowers, illuminated with tiny, scattered sequins. The straps are embellished with a delicate repeat of miniature poppies bordered with sequins and beads. The bodice edge and hem are edged with fine rows of beads and sequins. Slightly cropped, the Poppy Top reveals a sliver of skin at the waist. A back closure of hooks and eyes is concealed with a row of small silk-covered buttons.
