Astoria Lace Gown - Black

Crafted from premium Japanese Organic Cotton lace, the ASTORIA is an ultimate evening gown design that fuses timeless elegance with WHITE ANT’s signature Quiet Luxury aesthetic. The silhouette gently contours the body before expanding softly from the hips down, creating an elongated A-line length that flawlessly optimizes body proportions and ensures graceful, fluid movement with every step.

The gown features a sophisticated boat neckline that hugs the shoulders to accentuate the collarbones, paired with a meticulously constructed waist seam and hip-enhancing structural cuts for a highly feminine silhouette. The long sleeves are tailored from a delicate single layer of sheer lace, featuring pleated puffed shoulders and slightly flared cuffs. The absolute pinnacle of this piece lies in the hand-cut finishing applied to the entire neckline, cuffs, and hem. The original scalloped edges of the Japanese lace are flawlessly preserved through a highly meticulous artisan trimming process; therefore, the original garment cannot be shortened, hemmed, or structurally altered in length.

The ASTORIA achieves exceptional visual depth through a luxury three-layer construction: the main Organic Cotton lace, an imported shimmer mesh lining with a subtle iridescent sheen and structural firmness to retain the perfect silhouette, and a soft silk inner lining. This refined see-through effect is thoughtfully executed to deliver magnificent light-catching properties while ensuring impeccable coverage and modesty. Fully enclosed with clean-finished seams (Clean Finish), the gown stands as a testament to world-class Resort Couture standards.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Washing

Dry cleaning is highly recommended to maintain the fabric durability, shape-retention mesh, and woven lace structure.

Do not machine/hand wash with water or soak for extended periods.

Absolutely do not wring or twist forcefully to prevent distortion of the delicate lace structure and the hand-cut scalloped edges.

Avoid using strong detergents containing chlorine.

2. Drying

Do not tumble dry or expose to high heat.

After dry cleaning, store and dry the garment in a cool and well-ventilated place, away from prolonged direct sunlight.

3. Ironing

Iron at low to medium heat (Low - Medium Heat).

It is recommended to iron on the reverse side or use a pressing cloth over the lace surface and raised textures.

Do not apply high direct heat to stretchable areas or delicate lace boundaries; light steaming may be used to maintain the natural drape of the long gown.

4. Storage

Store in a cool, dry place.

Preferentially hang gently using padded hangers to retain its natural shape and protect the lace shoulders from stretching.

Do not clamp clips directly onto delicate lace areas or hand-cut edges to avoid indentation or fabric deformation.

Avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp objects that may cause snagging.

Do not place heavy items on top of the gown for long periods to preserve the natural loft of the lace and the shape-retention shimmer mesh layers.
