Turquoise Butterfly Dress

A graceful, one-of-a-kind halter dress crafted from a vintage silk furisode kimono in luminous shades of turquoise. The fabric features an intricate arrangement of gold, silver, and black butterflies drifting amongst soft white florals, creating a sense of movement and light across the body.

The halter neckline frames the shoulders and décolletage, while the silhouette falls effortlessly into a flowing maxi length. An off-centre front split adds subtle drama, allowing the dress to move beautifully with each step and reveal glimpses of the layered silk beneath.

Each panel has been carefully placed to honour the original textile, preserving the artistry and symbolism of the kimono while reimagining it into a contemporary, wearable piece.

Originally showcased on the runway at STYLEAID and Circular Fashion Festival, this piece reflects a commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and contemporary design.

A refined statement in slow fashion — elegant, unique, and timeless.
