Gold does not overwhelm everything: it appears in touches, as if hand-applied to the bodice of the white and gold Lizea kaftan, evoking gilding more than a repeated pattern. This restraint is what makes the result precious rather than flashy.
How this white and gold kaftan is made
Brocade covers the bodice and long sleeves — a white background, irregular golden shapes, and a row of matching buttons descending to the belt. Made from the same brocade, the belt defines the waist before giving way to a white chiffon skirt, lined with silk satin, which falls in fluid pleats to a discreet train. The V-neckline and overall cut remain deliberately understated, allowing the material to take center stage.
Wedding, formal ceremony, nikka: this is the piece for those who want a touch of gold without going overboard. Fine gold jewelry, an ivory clutch, and the outfit is complete.
- White and gold brocade on the bodice and sleeves, with matching buttons

FAQ
Can Lizea be worn as a bridal outfit?
Yes — white is predominant, while gold remains an accent. It is a beautiful bridal option for a nikka or a refined reception.
What about as a guest?
It is possible if the bride is not wearing white that evening; when in doubt, ask her. White and gold remain a delicate choice for a guest.
Does the train make it difficult to walk?
No, it is short and discreet — more an extension of the drape than a true bridal gown train.
How should it be cared for?
Dry cleaning preserves the brocade and the fluidity of the chiffon. Store it on a hanger under a garment bag.
