Merhezivo Lond Dress 24-carat gilded beads

Made to order dress. A voluminous, straight silhouette conceived for every figure — effortless in form, extraordinary in making. The Merezhivo dress is distinguished by its Richelieu embroidery, one of the most demanding traditions in fine needlework. Each sleeve is hand-cut over the course of eight hours; the hemline alone requires days of sustained work. To the collar and sleeves, 24-carat gilded beads are applied by hand, one by one — by five artisans in Kyiv, over 10 to 15 hours per garment. The craft, in detail — 8 hours of hand-cutting per sleeve — Days to complete the hemline embroidery — 5 artisans collaborate on each dress — 10–15 hours total handcraft time per piece Composition & Provenance Fabric: 100% Belgian Linen Embellishment: 24-carat gilded beads, hand-applied Embroidery: Richelieu, hand-cut Origin: Kyiv, Ukraine Care & Fit Dry clean only.

Due to the entirely handcrafted nature of this piece, very slight variations in embroidery and bead placement are inherent — and the mark of the artisan's hand.
