A study in tone-on-tone elegance, Petal Symphony is crafted in luminous blue silk, its surface alive with softly shimmering petals. Through the skirt, the blossoms appear vivid, then fade upward toward the bodice with subtle grace, creating a natural ombré effect. Romantic and refined, the gown embodies timeless artistry—ideal for weddings, galas, and occasions where quiet sophistication leaves a lasting impression.
The silhouette emphasizes composure and clarity: a sculptural collar frames the neckline with architectural poise, while the bodice flows seamlessly into a full skirt that carries the motif upward with painterly restraint. Woven in tonal jacquard, the fabric creates depth and dimension without overwhelming the form. Fully lined and finished with atelier precision, the gown reveals its craftsmanship in both structure and surface detail.
Every Gramercy gown is made bespoke, with pattern, proportion, and color tailored to honor the unique posture, shape, and event of its wearer.
An exemplar of quiet luxury and architectural grace, Petal Symphony offers stately presence at the most significant of formal occasions. More than an evening gown, it is a composition of balance and resonance—bespoke couture designed to endure in memory.
Technical Description & Construction
Silhouette:
Classic A-line / ball gown silhouette, fitted through the bodice and flaring into a full, floor-length skirt for a regal, universally flattering line.
Neckline & Bodice:
Dramatic sculptural portrait collar that stands gently away from the neck before folding open into a wide V-neckline. The surplice (wrap-style) bodice ensures a tailored fit and elegant shaping.
Sleeves:
Three-quarter length sleeves—a formalwear classic offering coverage while showcasing the wrists.
Waistline:
Defined natural waist anchored by a wide set-in waistband, balancing bodice and skirt with precision.
Skirt Construction:
Floor-length skirt structured with deep inverted box pleats that amplify the fabric’s play of light and shadow.
Fabric:
Woven floral jacquard, not printed. The tone-on-tone weave combines satin and matte threads in the same color family to create inherent depth, texture, and subtle shimmer—most often executed in silk mikado for body and lustre.
Fabric & Patterning
Motif:
Dense, all-over pattern of abstracted petals—fluid, impressionistic, and dynamic, evoking a soft symphony in motion.
Technique:
Tone-on-tone weave rather than surface print, ensuring that light and movement, not pigment, define the pattern.
Effect:
The result is rich, dimensional texture that shifts gracefully as the wearer moves.
Color Palette
Base:
Serene powder / sky blue.
Tonal Variation:
Generated entirely through the weave—highlights shimmer as silvery blue, while shadows deepen into soft mid-tone azure.
Effect:
A monochromatic harmony of sheen and depth that captures the essence of refined understatement.
