One shoulder is sleeved; the other is dropped and finished with a folded band. Fine straw runs along the asymmetric neckline, set with crystals and mother-of-pearl. The hem sweeps.

Paja toquilla is the straw of the Ecuadorian coast, split from the young leaves of the toquilla palm and woven by hand in the towns around Montecristi. The same fibre has been worked there for generations into the finest hats in the world. GALAP sets it into cloth. Each panel is woven to the shape of the garment it will join, then cut and sewn in our New York atelier. No two weaves are identical; the variation is the signature of the hand.

Structured heavy crepe with stretch lining. Hand-woven toquilla straw. Crystals, mother-of-pearl and iridescent stones.
