There are “naked” dresses and then there’s the whisper of a Celia Kritharioti dress Beyoncé wore.
Beyoncé made it look easy, but this was a “demanding” dress to make as well as to wear, according to couturier Kritharioti, who heads up the oldest Greek fashion house, established in Athens in 1906. It required hundreds of hours of embroidery, thousands of sequins and numerous fittings to realise the nude mesh look scattered artfully with twinkling beads.
“Nude is a hue that I think you never tire of, and it’s a wonderful canvas in which to show skilled and detailed embroidery techniques,” says Celia.Watching social media light up with Bey’s glittering gown was a full circle moment for Celia. “When I designed this dress I actually envisioned Beyoncé wearing it,” shares the designer of the spring/summer 2022 look, which Mrs Carter’s team requested promptly after seeing it at the Paris showcase.
. “Old Hollywood is a reference although my primary aim is to always make women feel the best possible version of themselves,” says the woman who also keeps“With any gown, we leave nothing to chance,” notes the Grecian couturier on the rigorous fitting process.On why the naked dress will always have a place in the fashion lexicon, Kritharioti says, “It’s this ideal combination of femininity and sexiness. A dress like this is daring, but it oozes confidence.
