Peaches & Cream Collection
RAFAELLA
$6,800 AUD
Custom made, see inclusions below
Rafaella celebrates the romance of the V waistline, drawing on historic couture waists of the late nineteenth century and reimagined for the modern bride. Sculpted through precise panel lines, the corset shapes the waist before cascading into our signature soft V over the high hip, creating femininity without harsh angles.
The skirt unfolds in fluid pleats and dramatic panels, narrowing the waist while expanding beautifully at the hem. Crafted in silk dupion and finished with optional rose accents, Rafaella offers editorial presence balanced with lightness and movement.

Craftsmanship & Techniques
Rafaella is crafted through multiple panels on the corsetry and side front shaping to contour the body while maintaining lightness.
The skirt is panelled to build volume at the hem while preserving a cinched waist, with pleats flowing seamlessly toward the centre back closure. Cut from silk dupion and bagged out in organza, the gown moves freely and can be styled with or without a hired petticoat for added drama. Rose appliqués (optional) are all hand rolled and hand sewn onto the garment.
