Covet

“And then I became aware of all the magnificent silk wrapped around my body, and had the feeling I might drown in beauty. At that moment, beauty itself struck me as a kind of painful melancholy.”

– Arthur Golden, “Memoirs of a Geisha”

Covet, a name equal parts inviting and forbidding, yet utterly undeniable. The irrepressible desire to touch and caress is expressed perfectly in an enveloping ream of unbroken silk satin, wrapped longingly over a corseted form. The effortless hand-pleating fades into a sharply-tailored skirt, reminiscent of the notorious late-60’s mod aesthetic.

Completing the ensemble, the decadent silk watteau can be worn as either cape or train. A cocoon of the finest fabric hands may touch, the Covet gown epitomizes the kind of beauty than is not enough to be observed; it must be possessed.
