Lacy gossamer streams, so delicate that they almost disappear from sight, flow between dense, richly hand-painted golden bands that at times appear to float in space. This long, lean, gently flared and fitted Swirl was designed to be worn over bare arms, hence its sleeves are cut narrow with just a bit of extra length to allow soft gathers to form at the wrist. Whether pinned closed or worn open and flowing, admiring glances will always follow this sheer beauty.
