A vision of serenity and harmony, Bluebirds takes flight in luminous powder-blue silk–wool. The gown’s surplice neckline and belted waist shape a graceful, feminine silhouette, while the custom print reveals Audubon-inspired birds in motion. Like wings caught mid-flight, the design carries a sense of quiet freedom and cultivated elegance—poised yet poetic.
Cut with soft architecture, the gown balances fluid drape with tailored definition. The surplice bodice frames the neckline in sculptural lines before tapering into a defined waist, while the skirt releases into a sweeping A-line that moves with lightness and ease. The avian motif is carefully engineered, allowing each bird to appear in natural rhythm across the fabric’s expanse. Fully lined and finished to atelier standards—hand-finished seams, invisible closure—this design exemplifies couture integrity in motion.
Every Gramercy gown is made bespoke, with pattern, proportion, and color tailored to honor the unique posture, shape, and event of its wearer.
Intended for daytime celebrations and refined garden gatherings, Bluebirds captures the spirit of renewal and poise—soaring effortlessly from wedding mornings to the most meaningful of occasions. Confident, cultured, and unforgettable, it speaks to women who embody grace in motion and beauty with intention.
Technical Description & Construction
Silhouette:
Dramatic A-line / soft ball gown silhouette with the option of a structured overskirt panel or watteau-style train, creating a regal, floor-sweeping profile.
Neckline & Bodice:
Sculptural stand collar flowing into a surplice V-neckline—an architectural hybrid that frames the face while sculpting the torso.
Sleeves:
Sleeveless, with cleanly cut armholes to emphasize the gown’s structural lines.
Waistline & Details:
Wide, clean-finished waistband defines the natural waist; seam-concealed side pockets offer modern luxury and function.
Fabric:
Heavyweight Silk, chosen for body and lustre to support the collar, overskirt, and engineered print with precision.
Print & Patterning
Motif:
Chinoiserie-inspired aviary featuring painterly bluebirds perched among delicate branches, evocative of Audubon watercolor illustration.
Placement:
Motifs rise organically from the hemline of the skirt and train, guiding the eye vertically.
Smaller accents at the bodice enhance the surplice shape without clutter.
Asymmetrical arrangement heightens the naturalistic movement of birds and branches.
Negative Space:
Expanses of powder-blue silk frame the print as wearable art, allowing each element to breathe with elegance and clarity.
Color Palette
Base:
Serene powder/celeste blue—luminous, airy, and softly radiant.
Birds:
Sky blue, cerulean, and deep indigo with soft grey and white highlights.
Branches:
Warm earthy tones of gold, ochre, and soft brown for grounded contrast and depth.
Effect:
A palette that balances cool serenity with warm accents—alive with dimension, harmony, and refined movement.
Investment & Couture Process
Bluebirds is priced at $4,550, which includes your custom pattern, an at-home prototype fitting, and full couture construction in our New York atelier. Within the Calabro Collection, most gowns range from $4,500 to $6,500, depending on the textiles you choose—from classic silks to specialty jacquards to limited-edition European couture prints.
All of this is completed through our white-glove remote process, allowing you to experience true couture without ever having to travel.
The beauty of Bluebirds lies in the tension between its elements: the refined structure of the stand collar meets the painterly freedom of the aviary print. It is both architectural and romantic, poised and expressive—designed for women who move through the world with grace, intellect, and unforgettable style.
