Dahlia Bolero (Old Rose)
The Dahlia Bolero in Old Rose presents a warmer expression of modern Filipiniana—where tone, proportion, and softness are held in balance.
Cut in an empire-cropped silhouette, the bolero falls precisely below the bustline, shaping the frame while maintaining ease in movement. The proportion elongates the torso, creating a composed relationship between structure and delicacy.
Crafted from signature cocoon silk, a fabric valued for its natural luster and refined hand, the piece holds a smooth, structured surface with subtle luminosity. The Old Rose tone introduces a muted warmth—soft yet grounded, allowing the embroidery to emerge with quiet presence.
The sampaguita-inspired embroidery is rendered in tonal rose hues, forming a layered composition that favors continuity over contrast. The design reveals itself gradually—measured, restrained, and intentional.
This piece is presented in two distinct expressions of craftsmanship:
Classic Edition
• Tonal embroidery in Old Rose hues
• A softened, refined expression
• Lightweight with an understated finish
Embellished Edition
• Hand-applied beadwork layered onto tonal embroidery
• Added dimension with controlled light reflection
• An elevated expression with quiet intricacy
The silhouette is defined by structured butterfly sleeves, maintaining architectural precision against the softness of the tone. A concealed front closure ensures continuity, allowing the composition to remain uninterrupted.
Designed for a wearer who moves with quiet assurance, the Dahlia in Old Rose is not defined by occasion, but by presence—softly composed, yet unmistakably intentional.
Positioned within the Dahlia line, Old Rose introduces warmth into the system—refined, composed, and deliberately understated.
