Silken Dreams was born of love, designed to compliment my daughter’s pure, simple beauty on her wedding day. Natural spun silk provides a shimmering backdrop for the thousands of tiny glass beads that sparkle on alternating welts and gather in tiny pools at the back of the collar. The structure, length and drape of the coat allow it to glide gracefully over the train of a wedding gown. But you need not wait for a momentous time in life to enjoy this supple, flowing Swirl—a garden party, night on the town or any special day will do.
