Hansen & Gretel | Iris Taffeta Gown - Choc
Hansen & Gretel Iris Taffeta Gown in Choc.
There's a particular depth to chocolate taffeta that doesn't photograph true — in person it shifts between deep brown and burgundy as it moves, the slight sheen of the fabric catching and releasing light with every step. It's a colour that feels richer and more considered than black, with all the formality and none of the anonymity. For anyone who wants to arrive in something that reads as deliberately chosen rather than default, this is it.
The Iris is a sleeveless gown with a structure that does serious work: a fitted princess-cut bodice with fixed cross-back straps that sit clean and low on the back, a dropped waistband that hits at the hip rather than the natural waist, and a skirt that falls into soft, voluminous pleats from there. The volume is generous without being costumy — the taffeta has enough body to hold shape without stiffening. Invisible side seam zip and hook-and-eye closure, fully lined.
Style Advise: Wear it with minimal jewellery — the silhouette is the statement. A thin gold chain at the neck, chocolate or cognac strappy heels, and nothing else. The cross-back detail means the back is as much of the look as the front.
Fit Advise: Model is 175cm, Bust 81.5cm, Waist 63cm, Hips 89cm and wears a size S. Centre front length (size S): 147cm. Fits true to size.
