Natasha Zinko Multicolor Silk Velvet Stripe Ribbon Robe Dress, 2015

In a short period of time, Ukrainian-born fashion designer, Natasha Zinko, has captivated the British fashion scene with her diverse styles ranging from flamboyantly colorful to austere tailored suits. Initially a jeweler, her expertise in this area can be seen in her garments through a balance of color and textural combinations. Purchased from Zinko’s 2015 Moda Operandi trunk show, this robe dress is made from strips of pane velvet and silk grosgrain ribbon.

Vibrant, warm shades of red, hot pink, and chartreuse are complemented by rich emerald stripes and taupe tones. Down centre front, a crème velvet border forms a shawl collar. Mimicking the sleeves, the ankle-length hem is asymmetrical with each ribbon making the dress finishing at slightly different lengths. A modern rendition on a basic silhouette, this dress can be worn alone or paired as a cover or jacket to another ensemble.
