Riviera Couture - Flexi Golden China



Remains a total mystery to me why Mr G has this superb ensemble at a significantly reduced price, considering it falls under classic couture to me . It simply doesn't date. This is opulence at it's peak, evocative of the mystic orient in a first class presentation. This would not look out of place in stunning settings like the lobby of a Peninsula Hotel. It's that kind of couture. High end, elegant, confident with strong overtone of the east. The "Flexi Golden China" presents with a jacket in tones of gold and black. The pattern of the fabric is distinctive and with a plunge to the waistline, cleavage and midriff is revealed in a most alluring way. The skirt a classic "Riviera Couture" with the signature bow at the hip draws the eyes down the torso and across the gown . An added enhancement of this piece is the banded waist with the gold dynastic symbol. It's entirely regal in presentation. The flexi skirt is generous in proportion though has a softness to it that permits the use of such an opulent fabric without any hint of overkill. Incredible balance has been struck in this design and perhaps that's very in keeping with the ideals of Yin Yang so prized in Oriental culture. This is a form of power dressing in a completely sensual way.
