Collection: Arti Apparel

The Arti Apparel style

The label says its designs are worked out through structure, form and shape, and you can see it in how the gowns are cut. Mermaid lines run through the Celeste Floral Applique Maxi Dress, which pairs an off-shoulder neckline with a layered tulle skirt, and the Roselle One Shoulder Neck Maxi Dress in brocade. Sheath shapes are slimmer, as on the Elodie Sheath Maxi Dress in wine-red lace with detachable feather-trimmed sleeves.

Surface detail is where Arti Apparel puts its effort. The Lunara Applique Maxi Dress layers floral applique, beadwork and feather accents over sheer tulle. The Mireva Bead Maxi Dress adds tassel fringe across the bodice, and cape sleeves fall from the shoulders on the Veloura Cape Sleeve Maxi Dress. Two sets push the cape idea further: the Velissa Applique Set with its veil-like panels and the Elora Fringe Set with a tulle cape.

Capsules and separates

The pieces arrive in named capsules: Genesis Of Self, Oasis In Bloom, The Lucent and Les Lustre. Separates share a style name so they can be worn together. The Hora cocoon top goes with the Hora applique skirt, the Divine peplum top with the Divine straight pants, and the Tulip peplum applique blazer with the Tulip tulle skirt. Grace offers tulle in three forms: a layered mini skirt, a floor-length skirt and a cocoon top with batwing sleeves.

How to wear Arti Apparel

The gowns are made for weddings, wedding guest invitations, cocktail parties and anniversary dinners. The Amelie Off-Shoulder Maxi Dress, with long sheer lace sleeves and a tulle hem, has a bridal feel. For more coverage, the Aveline Applique Maxi Dress has a round neckline and long sleeves, and the Dahlia High Neck Maxi Dress closes at the neck.

For holidays and resort trips, the separates are easier to pack. Pair the Moneta halter top with the Moneta bubble skirt for a dinner out, or wear the Nerra wide-leg pants in a linen blend during the day. The Ilira Bead Khaki Hat finishes a vacation look.
