Nude EleganceEngagement Couture · Hanan Bakri

An engagement gown in blush, cut high at the front and long behind. The bodice is strapless and worked in horizontal bands: rows of crystal, pearl and metallic beading laid one above the other, closed at the waist by a beaded belt that is made separately and set last.

The skirt is tiered tulle in the same blush, gathered at each tier so the layers stand slightly away from one another. At the front it stops around the knee; behind, the tiers keep going and open into a long soft train. That asymmetry is what lets the gown be worn standing and dancing on the same evening.

The tiers can be lengthened or the front dropped to the floor, and the belt can be re-beaded in a different tone. Message us on WhatsApp and we will talk it through before we cut in Amman.
