Chukar
Birds of Static Collection | US 0/2 | Silk Chiffon, Cotton Voile, Partridge Feathers
Inspired by the Chukar Partridge, the drop waist of this dress sits at the fulcrum of the stride, exaggerating natural motion at the hips. Below this point, rows of vertical feathers rub against one while horizontal tucks act as structural analogs to avian wing joints.
DESIGN DETAILS:
Button closure on back, pleated skirt with real partridge feathers adhered vertically to each pleat, back skirt vent for movement
