I dreamt of a cloud of (exquisite) fabric;
I dreamt of a blouse that flies while spinning;
I dreamt of gathers, pleats, ruffles... and jewelry buttons by the thousands!
I dreamt of a shirt whose elegance would be matched only by its crazy exuberance. I dreamt of a shirt that would have this singular power to attract everyone's attention.
I dreamt of Gigi. What else?
Gigi is my tribute to Cristobal Balenciaga' iconic Baby-doll dress, my all-time favorite!, revealed to the public in 1959.
Composition :
Main material: 100% Cotton
Care instruction:
Good news! Gigi can be washed at home, either by hand or using your washing machine, with some basic caution. More specifically, wash it in a laundry bag at a maximum of 30°C, on a gentle cycle, with low spin speed. For drying: lay flat and air dry (absolutely no tumble drying!). For ironing, choose the "cotton" mode of your iron. Any doubt? Entrust your loved one to an eco-friendly laundry or call us for further advice!
When to wear it?
You can enjoy our beautiful Gigi all year round.
In the Summer and Spring, as simple (and divine) as it comes. In the Autumn and Winter, the radiance of its golden yellow will brighten up the grayest days. Our personal advice? When it gets cooler, wear your Gigi as an "over-shirt", on a skinny ribbed sweater!
How to wear it?
For a 100% Carlos-Carlos' chic & shock look, we (strongly) recommend you to pair your beautiful Gigi with our dear Carlotta gingham. Absolutely divine! If you are looking for a more "business-yet-very-unique" outfit, you may consider wearing it with skinny tailored pants or a pencil skirt. More in the mood for jeans+sneakers? We gotta! Worn open over a white tee-shirt, Gigi will bring just the right amount of sophistication to make your seemingly casual outfit absolutely irresistible.
