Lilac Duchess Satin with Handmade Silk Flowers
A reimagining of the house’s iconic Iris de Malte piece, this couture gown is crafted in lilac duchess satin and adorned with handmade silk flowers. The ultra-smooth bodice is shaped with shell-inspired drapery, recalling the sensual curves of Venus, while a dramatic side train brings movement and grandeur to the silhouette.
Drafted from an original 18th-century corset pattern, the bodice contours the torso with sculptural precision. Cascading duchess satin drapes fall from the hip, concealing an internal skirt mechanism that hides the closure and allows the piece to appear seamless from every angle. The result is a gown of quiet engineering and romantic spectacle — delicate, architectural, and unmistakably House of Alvin.
Each couture piece is made to order and available by private enquiry, with pricing determined by construction, materials, and fitting requirements.
Composition: 100% Duchess Silk.
Care : To protect your piece, we recommend that you look after them with care and have them dry cleaned.
