Three days of wedding events, and trousers that cover two of them.
Turquoise silk for the welcome drinks and the morning after.
Destination weddings come with a schedule: welcome drinks, the ceremony, a farewell brunch. The ceremony gets the dress. The other two need something that looks thought through without being formal.
The Palazzo 1932 in turquoise: 100% mulberry silk, an elastic waist, a wide leg that moves in a sea breeze. Dragon of Grace is printed across the ground by hand.
One standard size, or made to measure for an extra 10% of the listed price, up to a 46 inch hip.

Free US shipping at this price. Allow 1 to 3 business days before your order leaves Hanoi, then 9 to 15 business days of US delivery. Made to measure adds 3 to 5 business days of tailoring before it ships.
Carvings from the Ly court, in turquoise
The Ly court decorated its buildings with ceramic and stone: dragons, phoenixes, bodhi leaves, flowers. Dragon of Grace gathers those carved elements into one symmetrical design, eight small dragons arranged around a center inside carved borders.
Its meanings are strength, wisdom and grace, with the stress on grace. The Vietnamese name, May Hoa Long An, uses "an" for a kindness that is granted.
On turquoise, the carving becomes a clear, even pattern that suits a coast or a garden.
The wedding weekend
Welcome drinks A white silk or cotton top and flat gold sandals.
Farewell brunch A striped tee and sneakers, hair pulled back.
Travel day A soft knit and loafers for the flight home.
Size and made to measure
Below are the flat measurements and the hem guide. Heels or flats will change where they land.
Cut to your measurements, +10%
Made to order in our Hanoi atelier. One Size is our standard cut. If that is not your size, tell us yours and we will cut these trousers to you, up to a 46 in / 117 cm hip - same silk, same hand-printed panel, for an extra 10% of the listed price.
Reply to your order confirmation with your waist, hip and preferred length. Our team confirms within one business day, and tailoring adds 3 to 5 business days before dispatch. Once your measurements are confirmed, we send a secure link for the 10% made-to-measure surcharge. Made-to-measure pieces are not covered by our 30-day return and include one complimentary alteration instead.
Standard One Size, garment laid flat
These are the measurements of the trousers, not of your body:
- Elastic waist, relaxed: 26.8 in / 68 cm - stretches to fit
- Leg opening, all around: 41.7 in / 106 cm
- Length from waist: 34.3 in / 87 cm
Where the hem falls
- 5'9" / 175 cm: above the ankle
- 5'5" / 165 cm: at the ankle
- 5'2" / 157 cm: at the top of the foot
Prefer them longer or cropped? Tell us and we will cut them there, as a made-to-measure order (+10%).
Is it real silk?
Yes, 100% mulberry silk. They are cut from the same hand-printed silk as our turquoise scarves.
ELLE Vietnam and Harper's Bazaar Vietnam have both covered our studio.
Why $289
Each pair takes a generous amount of silk, and none of it is printed by machine: one screen per color, pulled by hand, panel by panel.
We match the print across both legs, then cut and sew to order in our Hanoi atelier. They ship direct, and we pay the US import duty, so the price stays $289.
Will they arrive before the wedding weekend?
Standard size: 1 to 3 business days in Hanoi, 9 to 15 business days to a US address. Order about three and a half weeks before you travel.
Made to measure: 3 to 5 extra business days before dispatch.
What if it is not right?
Standard size: you have 30 days to send it back, unworn, unwashed and in its original box. If you changed your mind, the return postage is yours. Choose store credit and we add 15%.
Made to measure: not covered by the 30-day return. One alteration is included, free.
Giving them
To a bridesmaid Something for the events that are not in the wedding colors.
To a friend flying in Sent to her home before she packs.
Not sure of her size The turquoise Dragon of Grace scarf, 26 inch, $97.
Caring for silk
Dry clean it. Say it is silk when you drop it off.
At home: cold water, by hand, no machine. Let it dry in shade.
