ROMANCE the quality or state of being romantic (marked by freedom, spontaneity, or freedom of conception and expression):
Jason Wu’s evening wear designs recall the great traditions of couture dressmaking. The technical mastery of French designer Madame Gres’ is a recurring reference. For his spring/summer 2019 collection, Wu presented a series of gowns inspired by Gres’ skillful manipulation of hand-pleated crepe. This gown from the series features panels of pleated silk crepe stitched to a base of transparent silk organza at the bust and a skirt of pleated organza falling lightly to the floor.
