A composition of artistry and elegance, Brush Stroke flows in sweeping tones of lavender and deep violet. Its custom print evokes the lush beauty of lilacs, wisteria, and irises—flowers long admired for their grace and radiance. Cut in a robe-inspired silhouette, the gown balances serenity with strength, softness with structure, carrying the aura of an atelier painting translated into silk.
The silhouette follows a robe-inspired line, wrapping the body in fluid drape while preserving couture precision. A sculpted collar frames the neckline with quiet authority, while the obi-style sash defines the waist and steadies the composition. The skirt falls in generous planes that catch light and shadow, reinforcing the brushstroke motif’s layered movement. Fully lined and completed with atelier finishing—hand-set seams, invisible closure, engineered print placement—this gown embodies both craftsmanship and artistic intention.
Every Gramercy gown is made bespoke, with pattern, proportion, and color tailored to honor the unique posture, shape, and event of its wearer.
Created for the onset of the New York autumn season, Brush Stroke projects sophisticated glamour—an artistic presence that moves effortlessly from soirées to galas. Regal yet fluid, expressive yet refined, it is couture for those who lead with taste and confidence.
Technical Description & Construction
Silhouette & Garment Type:
Formal coat-dress / robe-style gown with wrap-front closure and integrated sash. The skirt flows from the cinched waist into a full A-line or soft ball gown silhouette, offering both ease and grandeur.
Neckline & Bodice:
Sculpted mandarin collar opening into a plunging surplice V-neckline. The hybrid design creates an elongated, flattering line—modest at the neck, alluring at the décolletage.
Sleeves:
Full-length sleeves, a timeless choice for cooler autumn evenings and elevated formality.
Waist & Sash:
Defined by a wide, obi-inspired sash. Couture detail: the sash appears double-sided, with lighter lavender satin on the reverse for subtle contrast and sophistication.
Fabric:
Duchesse satin or silk faille—lustrous, weighty, and ideal for the crisp collar, voluminous skirt, and luminous print surface.
Print & Patterning
Motif & Style:
Impressionistic floral rendered with painterly brushstrokes, soft edges, and tonal variance. Blooms evoke lilac, peony, or wisteria in expressive washes.
Placement:
Engineered print flows across the gown:
Deep, saturated blossoms ground the hem
Lighter washes and delicate motifs rise toward the bodice and sleeves
Placement enhances form and proportion without overwhelming the wearer.
Color Palette & Seasonal Context
Scheme:
Monochromatic spectrum of purple, richly layered.
Base:
Pale lavender or lilac ground.
Florals:
Violet, mauve, plum, aubergine, and indigo tones build dimension and contrast.
Effect:
Jewel-toned richness, perfectly suited to autumn formals. The progression from airy lilac to deep violet mirrors the seasonal shift from summer into fall.
