Elizabeth Bolero

First seen in the Vivienne Westwood Gold Label Autumn-Winter 2014 Save the Rainforest collection, the Elizabeth Dress was inspired by iconic designs of the original courtier, Charles Frederick Worth. The historical shape of the original Elizabeth Dress has been re-interpreted to create the Elizabeth Bolero, the voluminous sleeves create a striking contrast to the simple bodice cinched at the waist. Available in classic silk duchess, the Absence of Roses jacquard, cloqué jacquard or a delicate tulle.

The Absence of Roses Duchesse is 57% FSC certified viscose and 43% REACH certified silk. The goal of FSC is traceability within the textile supply chain. Plant-based fabrics such as viscose can be considered environmentally friendly if sourced from well-managed forests. The FSC is collaborating with Canopy to ensure sustainable management of forests and the welfare of workers worldwide.

We are now offering bespoke personalised one-to-one couture and made-to-order appointments digitally.

Tailored proposals will be compiled for each client, taking into consideration their event setting, preference of silhouettes, styles and finishing’s. Through the new process measurements will be taken digitally and fabric options sent directly to clients’ homes to create the most life-like Westwood semi-couture experience.
