The Emerald Rose is cut from silk velvet in exactly that green, and it is a dress made for the evenings that matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe velvet pile darkens and brightens as you turn, so the colour never sits still — one moment a rich forest green, the next a bright, lit emerald.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClimbing the bodice is a trailing vine of hand-embroidered roses, worked entirely by hand. Blush, dusty pink, deep rose, cream and soft-gold blooms gather along golden stems, their leaves shaded in soft green and lifted with small flashes of blue. The embroidery falls from the neckline across the front to the hip and continues onto the low, open back, so the dress is as considered from behind as it is from the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silhouette is quietly confident — a bias-cut slip with fine straps, a V neckline and a softly scooped back, falling to a full maxi length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyling.\u003c\/strong\u003e Let the dress lead.
