CURATOR'S NOTE
In an eye-catching print that graces the shoulders and neck, presenting our distinctive silhouette, the pleated boat neck dress exemplifies a modern take on tailoring. Delicate, small pleats enhance the dress's allure, striking a seamless equilibrium between sustainability and urban aesthetics. The addition of lace detailing on the armhole and discreetly incorporated into the slip brings a touch of enchantment to the entire ensemble.
The elegant ivory color and Chanderi fabric exude sophistication. The pleated detail with blue top stitch and lace details on the armhole create a timeless and exclusive look. Hand-screen printing and a side tie up add a touch of artistry to this dress. It comes with a cotton slip dress that's adorned with lace work.
THE DESIGNER STORY
Inspired by the Japanese ideology of wabi-sabi, referring to that which is imperfect, impermanent, aged, humble and authentic, Ahmev carries an aesthetic that embraces the value of the passing of time, the seasoning of time and the elements, the handmade and the simple. Wabi-sabi is a way of being open to emotions and of acceptance; a state of mind and a state of feeling. The philosophy of wabi sabi is embodied in the design process, being showcased in the finished designs through the subtle hues, natural materials, frayed edges and the visible stitching and asymmetry.
