Red Night Dress

Nocturna Rubra is a piece that seems to have been born at midnight.

Your body is shaped by a structured bodice, with embossed embroidery that imitates closed petals or hesitant leaves, in Jacquard.

Straps with gathered rosettes sewn one by one—a poetic, handcrafted detail typical of haute couture dresses from the '80s and '90s.

The skirt opens into dense circles of burgundy organza, sheer and dramatic, with an inner lining that adds subtle shine and structure. As you walk, it seems to leave a trace in time, as if the floor remembers where she passed...
