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
Pavé the entire gown on canvas until the cloth disappears. Build a gold chain harness into the bones — shoulder, waist, hip, train — not jewelry, scaffolding. One sculptural sleeve, one side of the corset left readable. Train is cut as a cathedral and weighted with chain so it falls in lanes. This is Carnival construction on a gown.
