Abstract Ruby: Asymmetric Peplum Gown in Graphic Ankara | OutfitLibrary
Shot in a hotel corridor that serves as an unintentional runway — a vanishing-point perspective with doors retreating into the background — this look benefits from the depth of field in a way that static room shots cannot achieve. The gown is all blush-pink, a slightly warmer and more coral-adjacent pink than the baby pink look elsewhere in the series. The bodice is a structural corset with a distinctive butterfly wing panel at the centre front — a shaped panel rising to points at either side of the bust, its surface worked in vertical stripe detail and boning lines that create an almost architectural quality. The sheer lace long sleeves are heavily embellished, the embellishment heavier at the upper arm and transitioning to a flared bell cuff. The skirt is a fitted mermaid in heavily embroidered pink-white lace with a trailing hem. The trailing ipele — the third piece of fabric worn across the body and allowed to fall to the floor — adds movement and increases the ceremonial register of the look. The pink satin gele echoes the bodice warmth, and the crystal snake-print heels introduce both sparkle and texture contrast at the hem.
The butterfly wing corset panel should be sketched and agreed with your tailor before any fabric is cut — the shaped panel requires a pattern piece unique to this design. Source the ipele fabric to match or closely coordinate with the gele, as both should read as part of the same intentional set. The crystal snake-print heels are available from Nigerian footwear retailers; alternatively, commission a cobbler to add crystal embellishment to a snake-print heel in a matching pink.
