Corseted Draped Dress in Heavy Silk Satin
The Nova Cocotte is a gown that pays homage to the fashions of high society in the 18th century, first introduced in the Autumn-Winter 2005/06 Vive La Cocotte collection. The corset and neckline are modeled after those worn by fashionable women of the time, with a sweeping design that accentuates the waist. The delicate skirt falls from the hip in a slim A-line, draping and flowing like the robes of ancient Greek statues. The 2024 version is available in pearl white heavy silk satin or silk cady for a more understated shine.
