CHIC OF THE WEEK

The PICCALINA lace kimono in tulle and Chantilly lace is something I've been wanting to design and create for quite awhile.  I was inspired by old movies of women in delicate robes and/or dressing gowns, who of course sported long trains.  While this started out in the style of a dressing gown the addition of the dramatic, flowing sleeves falling into points gives it that kimono quality.  The under dress is a crepe sheath but a slip dress under this gemmie would work beautifully as well.
