Peplo references nuances and perspective- believing that none of the pieces of history we have been told is ever black and white. It plays on the idea of shading, with its base as a solid block colour, which is then wrapped and draped in layers of transparent organza, giving it a rather sensual effect, and at the end, changing the colour of the skirt from what it was at the beginning. Pearls are then hand-embroidered on to create droplet-like effects on the skirt. To continue the play on symbolism and narratives, the entire skirt is neatly packaged together with a pleated waist-belt, and a bow that wraps around the waist asymmetrically.
The Peplo Skirt is custom-made to your measurements.
Given that the entire piece is hand-draped, please note that there may be slight variation from piece to picture.
