Ash of Oleander Empress Gown

They say the oleander is most poisonous when it is most beautiful. Beneath its delicate blossoms lies a darkness capable of stilling the heart, a terrible contradiction of loveliness and death. The Ash of Oleander Empress Gown is born of that same sinister enchantment, its great sweeping folds awash with spectral silver, charcoal and the ashen remnants of flowers long since turned to dust. Like smoke rising from a funeral pyre, its ethereal colouring seems to shift and dissolve into the darkness, a magnificent apparition caught in the final moments before disappearance.

There is something almost otherworldly in the way beauty survives its own destruction. The pale ghost of a flower, the silver trace of something consumed by fire, the last wisp of smoke curling into an empty room. An exquisite vision of all that remains when the living world has fallen silent, and only the most beautiful ghosts are left to wander.
