[Testimonials]
Katsuko has made me a beautiful wrap-around silk dress. I’ve worn it to work for the first time today and had a few compliments already. It’s contemporary, feels lovely and has fits me perfectly. She makes good suggestions about what suits your shape and what’s practical to wear. I wholeheartedly recommend Katsuko. I’m really happy with my lovely designer dress.
Design Overview
This is a stunning A-line overlapped dress that I, as the dressmaker, have crafted with care, featuring a captivating blue-green willow wood printed pattern. I’ve meticulously made it from 100% silk crepe de chine, sourced from the prestigious Liberty London, ensuring a luxurious texture and high-quality finish.
The design includes a sophisticated stand collar and expansive, open cuffs, adding a touch of elegance and flair to the overall silhouette. The combination of the unique print and premium fabric makes this dress a standout piece, perfect for those seeking a blend of artistry and comfort in their wardrobe.

Material and Lining
As the dressmaker, I’ve paid special attention to the materials, using silk crepe de chine from Liberty London for the outer layer, which provides a smooth, flowing drape. I’ve lined the body and sleeves with black silk habutai, offering a soft and comfortable inner layer that enhances the dress’s structure.

However, I chose a vibrant bright pink silk crepe satin in Fuchsia for the stand collar and cuff linings, adding a bold and unexpected pop of colour. This thoughtful choice of lining materials not only ensures durability but also reflects my commitment to detail and creativity in every stitch.

Features and Accents
I’ve accentuated the dress with a large ribbon at the waist opening, which cinches the A-line shape and adds a customizable fit for the wearer. This ribbon detail not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also allows for a versatile styling option, making it suitable for various occasions.
