Traditional

Consider what ultimate accordion-style pleating can do for a well-mannered peplum. Use the same dressmaker technique to give a couture look to gift wrap.

Elegant tonal patterns of damask prettified with embellishments of gold-toned ribbons, braided rope, passamenterie, and lavish tassels confirm that tradition and good taste are forever in style.
