The Tale
Romanticism through a modern lens. This 1980s silk romper was selected for its delicate interplay of fluid silk and intricate lace, recalling the effortless femininity of Chloé. Its soft blush palette and lingerie-inspired detailing evoke an intimate, almost dreamlike sensibility — delicate without feeling overly sweet. The waist was reworked by Bella Cinquini to create a more defined silhouette while preserving the softness and ease of the original garment. A vintage piece reconsidered for the present, where romanticism meets a more intentional, modern form.
