Matelassé (Rose Quilting)
【Matelassé】: the French word for quilting
Using the technique of double weaving (blister weave), in which 2 layers of fabric, face and back, are woven as if joined together with thread, the difference in yarn shrinkage creates a puffed texture, finished as a raised “rose pattern” reminiscent of sashiko stitching. Film yarn woven into the fabric gives it a soft, elegant sparkle.
Take on the form of a fragile heroine who has alighted in a world of fantasy, as if lost in a deep forest, and savor the Matelassé Rose series, with its rose pattern full of enveloping warmth and shimmer.

An elegant dress with a striking presence, featuring large shoulder ribbons.
Trim lace edges the neckline, and rose-motif lace adorns the bust.
With a clean waistline shaped by long panels and a lace-up ribbon at the back that can be drawn in, it flares out beautifully despite its simplicity, in a design characteristic of Victorian maiden.
The braid above the hem frill, though understated, is one of its charms.
The 2 large self-fabric ribbons are removable: wear them on the shoulders, or, when wearing outerwear, take them off and attach them to the front and back of the waist as an accent, broadening your coordinate options.
Worn with pieces from the same series, it takes on an even more luxurious historical atmosphere and an air of grace…✧
