This short dress is intricately decorated in shimmering gold against sheer black for a mix of structure and fluidity. A faux bateau neckline and balloon sleeves create an elegant frame, while a cinched waist emphasises the silhouette. Finished with a deep V-backline, the dress transitions seamlessly from day to night.

A poetic blend of Art Deco and romantic motifs, the Perseus Story is the epitome of Temperley's dedication to craftsmanship, with painstakingly embellished daffodils, snowdrops, and sunrays.

Responsibility

May we help?

Process

Temperley prints are painstakingly hand-painted in-house. Motifs are collaged onto the body then lovingly engineered into compositions that work in harmony with the garment’s panelling, ensuring the printed fabric flows flawlessly across seam joints when the garment is constructed. The process is both meticulous and spontaneous, with an outcome that is truly unique and artisanal.

Materials

Committed to creating unique and original textiles, the Temperley team designs lace and woven fabrics in-house at our atelier, which are then crafted by our trusted partners at expert mills across the globe. We utilise best quality Italian tulle, soft and sheer, perfectly structured with a flawless drape. Another staple material includes luxurious silk, woven to create a lustrous effect, with a smooth and radiant finish, perfect for eveningwear.

Our Atelier

Imagined by our team at the creative hub and beating heart of the brand, our atelier in Somerset — infusing a bohemian spirit, intrinsically woven into the pieces, the exquisite craftsmanship, blending modern techniques with artisanal mastery.
