Introducing the JOLIE dress by HORROR VACUI, a true standout piece crafted from 100% silk twill that promises to elevate any occasion with its unparalleled elegance and sophisticated charm.

The JOLIE dress is distinguished by its fully pin-tucked sleeves, a signature HORROR VACUI element that creates an elegant volume while remaining feather-light to the touch. This exquisite detail is complemented by the froschgoscherl at the stand-up collar and scallop edge details along the collar and hem, epitomizing the brand's unique visual language through meticulous craftsmanship.

Adorned in a striking shade of green, reminiscent of precious gemstones, the JOLIE dress features a feminine floral print that reveals a mesmerizing surprise upon closer inspection: flowers composed of polished gemstones, adding a layer of sophistication and intrigue.

This dress gracefully secures at the nape with a tie closure, offering the option to be worn with or without the included fabric tie belt, allowing for versatile styling. Its elegant midi length is perfect for special occasions that demand something truly extraordinary, making the JOLIE dress a sophisticated statement piece brimming with character and elegance.

HANDCRAFTED DETAILS

HAND-CUT SCALLOP EDGE

The scallop edge hem, a distinctive hallmark within Anna‘s collections, stands as a testament to HORROR VACUI’s unparalleled craftsmanship and artisanal excellence. Meticulously shaped by the skilled hands of our artisans, each scallop is a symphony of precision and dedication. This handcrafted technique transforms the ordinary into extraordinary, revealing a nuanced artistry that transcends the constraints of mass production.

In our atelier, each edge of the fabric is intricately cut with precision, employing scissors to gracefully shape the rounds. The process is elevated with a meticulous finishing touch—fine stitchings that trace the curves with exacting detail. This labor-intensive technique encapsulates the essence of handcrafted luxury, ensuring that each scallop becomes not just a design feature but a tangible masterpiece.

The result is not just a scallop edge; it is a tactile poetry of skill, and a luxurious signature that defines the distinct allure of HORROR VACUI garments.

HAND-PLEATED FROSCHGOSCHERL

The Froschgoscherl, originally adorning the bodice of a Dirndl—an emblem of traditional Bavarian attire dating back to the 19th century—stands as a pinnacle of artisanal finesse. Within our atelier, this meticulously handcrafted technique emerges as the pièce de résistance, embodying the epitome of ornate artistry.

The Froschgoscherl unfolds as a box-pleated garland trim meticulously crafted by the skilled hands within our atelier. This intricate process commences with the creation of a ribbon from the fabric of the garment. Each box pleat, a testament to precision, is meticulously folded from the ribbon and delicately pressed into its rightful place, transforming the material into a cascading symphony of texture and form.

As the process continues, the opposite midpoints between the leading edges of the pleats are delicately lifted with needle and thread and connected with a knot. This process is repeated with every pleat, invoking a dance of meticulous stitching. This handcrafted technique, reminiscent of the meticulous practices of Alpine costume, elevates the Froschgoscherl beyond a mere adornment—it becomes an ethereal manifestation of luxurious craftsmanship, a delicate ode to the art of creation.
