Ciara is the one that started it all. One of the original WAM gowns and still one of the most loved, she's the dress for the bride who wants to feel timeless rather than trendy. A soft v-neckline sits beautifully on all bust sizes, delicate rouleaux straps rest lightly on the shoulders, and the back seaming flows into a train in a way that feels effortless rather than overdone.
THE FIT
Ciara is cut on the bias, which means the fabric is taken from the diagonal grain of the silk rather than the straight. This is what gives her that signature fluid drape — she moves with the body rather than sitting against it, skimming natural curves without clinging. The v-neckline is soft and open enough to suit a range of bust sizes, while the rouleaux straps keep the shoulder line clean and delicate. The back seaming is where the structure lives, gently shaping the silhouette before releasing into the train.
THE BIAS CUT
The bias cut is where Ciara really earns her place. Cut on the diagonal grain of the fabric, she moves with the body in a way that a straight-cut gown simply doesn't. She ebbs and flows over natural curves, uses the natural stretch of the silk, and creates that soft, draped silhouette that is genuinely hard to achieve without getting the cut exactly right. It took time to perfect and you'll feel the difference the moment you put her on.
FABRIC & FEEL
Crafted from 100% silk satin and fully lined in a viscose blend sateen, Ciara is pure quality from the inside out. She has a finger loop to lift the train on the dance floor, and she works beautifully styled up with statement jewellery or kept completely minimal. Both versions of Ciara are stunning. That's the beauty of a dress with this kind of simplicity.
