Asheyori Eji · 2202 · Made to measure

Ajoke

Ajoke is a two-piece built for a grand entrance. The gown is tulle and lace over stretch charmeuse, with an integral corset that shapes the bodice. Tulle is draped along the neckline and caught at the centre front by an appliqué brooch, then gathered into sleeves that sit just off the shoulder.

The skirt is fitted through the hips, then flares gently into a trumpet and a puddle train. Over it all falls a detachable Watteau train of tulle, flowing from the shoulders to cathedral length and edged with lace appliqués. Take it off and the gown dances on its own.
