2017 Siah Howard Haute Couture Pink Maxi Dress

Siah Howard is a haute Couture fashion label established in London in 2017. An eveningwear and wedding dress specialist, Howard’s fantastical designs are elaborate, elevated and otherworldly. This incredible gown was created as part of the designer’s whimsical ‘Out of Eden’ collection. The body is crafted from a sheer nude mesh with abstract panels of tiny beads in pale baby pink and iridescent fuchsia bugle beads. Pearls adorned the nude mesh in patterns placed to look like coral. Soft fabric flowers in dark coral and magenta appear to grow up the body of the dress, finished with sage green fabric leaves and vines adorned with silver-tone metal chains. The silhouette is body-hugging; the dress is heavy and clings to the body due to the elaborate beadwork and stretch-mesh fabric. It has pretty cap-sleeves and a slash neckline. The waterfall skirt is incredibly detailed; frayed squares of silk in a range of complimentary pink hues ripple atop gold lace detailed with metallic sequins. The dress is extremely long, meaning the skirt flows out behind the wearer like a train. The dress is unlined and, as such, is sheer underneath the mesh panels. It fastens at the back with a long hidden tonal zip.

This attention-grabbing piece is in excellent condition, particularly for a gown of such intricate embellishment and may never have been worn. The retail tag, minus VAT, is over £13k. Due to being couture made, it has no size or composition label, so please check the measurements below carefully. The fabric has some stretch and we believe that this would best fit a statuesque size UK 6-8 or US 2-4.
