The CASPAR blouse is expertly crafted from sumptuous 100% silk crepe de chine, boasting a matte silk crepe de chine texture in a captivating summer green shade.

This garment seamlessly combines sophistication with comfort, making it the perfect choice for elevating any ensemble with a touch of understated elegance. HANDCRAFTED DETAILS 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.
