Blue silk cut to your own measurements, falling in one easy line.
A dress that fits the way you always hoped one would.
Long in the body, short in the waist, a size apart from top to bottom: most of us have one reason a standard dress lets us down. Picture this silk dress cut to your own numbers instead, the blue settling smoothly at the shoulders and moving with you across the room, the small dragons shimmering as the light changes.
This dress is 100% mulberry silk, hand-printed with Dragon of Grace in blue and cut and finished in our Hanoi atelier, each panel placed so the print runs true across the body.
It is made to order. Send your measurements for a made-to-measure cut at an extra 10% of the listed price, or tell us your usual US size and we cut to that.

We pay the import duty, not you.
Shipping is free at this price. Orders leave Hanoi in 1 to 3 business days, then take 9 to 15 business days to a US address. A made-to-measure cut adds 3 to 5 business days of tailoring before dispatch.
A pattern that follows the body
Dragon of Grace repeats the Ly Dynasty dragon of Hanoi's imperial citadel small and in symmetry, framed by carved borders, bodhi leaves and a lotus pedestal, so the silk looks evenly worked, like fine engraving in blue.
That evenness suits a dress cut to one person, because the repeat stays balanced across any proportions and no large motif lands in an awkward spot.
The name, May Hoa Long An, speaks of grace granted, and its roots lie in the Lotus Sutra image of the dragon offering a pearl, which in Ly art stands for enlightenment. Read more on the meaning of the Dragon of Grace motif.
Where it goes
Art openings and cultural events With plain black accessories, the blue print holding its own beside the art on the walls.
Evening dinners With a heel and one bold earring, the silk swaying as you walk to the table.
Later in the evening Under a black coat, or with our blue Dragon of Grace scarf at the neck.
