Auricula is a striking three-piece bridal ensemble in contrasting ruby velvet and ivory duchess satin, defined by a modern, minimalist architectural silhouette and refined couture construction.
The strapless velvet bodice features a sculpted V-shaped basque waist with a softly curved neckline, creating a clean and structured frame to the upper body. Its restrained detailing places emphasis on line, shape and proportion rather than embellishment.
Paired with a duchess satin A-line skirt, the gown maintains an elegant, fluid line with a soft, understated finish. A dramatic matching red velvet, detachable train featuring centre-back pleating sits discreetly at the waist beneath the bodice, falling from the skirt into an elongated rectangular panel with an extended floor-sweeping length. The modular construction allows the look to transform effortlessly from bridal statement to a more pared-back evening silhouette.
Finished with a row of covered buttons, Auricula is versatile, refined, and contemporary in feel — designed for ease of wear while maintaining a strong couture presence.
