Peacock Silk Satin Sunburst Mother's Dress

This striking silk satin bustier was created by folding, layering, hand basting and then machine stitching over 60 individual bias-cut strips of fabric to form a sunburst design on the front of a fitted, well-boned strapless bustier. The center front is finished with a custom-covered button accented with a tone-on-tone embroidered motif. The bustier closes with an invisible zipper at center back. A matching long-sleeve cropped jacket with shawl collar provides coverage during the ceremony and when traveling from wedding to reception. A simple gored skirt in black silk crepe-back satin is all that's needed to complete the look for this mother of the groom.
"Just wanted to send you a huge thank you for my outfit for Dan's wedding. Everyone, and I do mean everyone, thought the bustier and bolero were incredible. I expected women to appreciate it, but when men kept commenting on how beautiful it was, I knew I had something special. I felt wonderful and beautiful all day."
