The Palais is original Ooh La La. Chain, train, and a year of surface. Buy to commission, or book the flagship. Cut and sewn in New Orleans. Palais gowns: 16–24 weeks. Rush by appointment.
The Palais — a gown crossed with Carnival construction. Chain is built into the dress, not worn as jewelry. The train is cut as architecture. Original Ooh La La. This is not a tribe’s suit. Custom color is included.
How we make it
Pack baroque and seed pearl until there is no ground. Mix metal chain through the pearl so the dress can hang as well as drape. One sleeve is a cage of chain and pearl; the other is left. Train is a river of pearl, weighted at the hem. Same bench as a masking suit, cut as a gown.
