Sanskrit meaning 'Star'
'Tara'
This design is based on the gowns
worn during the 12th Century.
The gown features wide trailing sleeves, V-shaped neckline
and a soft girdle belt. Tablet woven braids with geometrical
patterns were often used as decorations on garments,
but the 'Tara' gown features embroidered trims based
on a 12th century stone carving design instead.
This gown is inspired by the beautiful geometrical
carvings at Durham Cathedral, the amazing round chapel
at Ludlow Castle, the art of tablet weaving and the
beautiful flowing lines of early medieval clothing.
Gown is shown in no 46 Green Silk.
Price : £ 1050 in any of the 80 shades of silk.
(the higher price is due to the embroidered borders)
