Sophisticated Paisley Print Jersey Dress – Paisley

Paisley is a weave and in printed textiles it's timeless, there’s something about the whole monochrome look that I love. Black and white are bold colours in their own right, together they harmonise uniquely.  Here we have a mixed-media of fabric textures all of which compliment the design of unapologetic sophistication - you're welcome!

When I laid these fabrics side by side in their natural state I was drawn to how this medley of fabrics, including the soft cotton jersey with its paisley pattern, welcomed the stretch faux snake skin, which in turn said hello to the jersey lace. They are all fabrics of varying weights, but it was knowing which order would suit the design features of the dress and how much to use that was important.

The jersey lace with its knobbly texture was best suited to the skirt. It has a superb stretch and recovery, especially when sitting, and it had to be lined in a stretch mesh fabric providing additional support, as well as coverage, as a result it is slimming in the tummy area and hips.  The faux snake skin is perfect for the bodice of the dress, cinching in the waist part of my signature with this style of dress.  The paisley fabric which started the whole journey is so soft against the skin, beautiful for the upper bodice, there is coverage for your upper arms with the finishing touch of faux snake skin cuffs.

This dress like you is meant to be seen and appreciated, it speaks to confidence, and being different, I encourage you to stand tall and stand out!
