| The first layer of hand painting |
 |
| Ombre over-dye on jacquard silk |
The fabric always starts out pure white, first I brushed three colors of dye on a double layer of silk stretched on the frame and let it dry. Azul is the colorway the mother of the groom selected for her dress, turquoise, orchid and ultramarine. Next, I immersed the dye to create an ombre overlay to the hand painted pattern. The overdyed effect is rich and saturated pastel.
The jacquard silk is shimmering with a lovely diagonal leaf pattern. The comfortable and modern trapeze dress will have an asymmetrical hem that hits at the knee in front and tapers to mid-calf in back. The peacock feather ruana is vivid and playful with rich colors and gold embellishing and will coordinate the outfit perfectly.
