This stunning, long shrug is hand-painted on a gorgeous, rusty red silk crepe. Hand-beaded to add weight. It has a wonderful drape and swing, and is beaded around the peek-a-boo shoulder and down the front, such that it sits well on the body. Set the shoulder beads on the shoulder seams, and just let it hang as it wants to! A wonderful, un-fussy alternative to a shawl, a more elegantly feminine alternative to a jacket, it can be rolled into a very small package and travels well! This is a flattering and fun year-round accessory, but its sheer weave and light weight makes it most ideally suited for warmer temperatures, and the crepe hangs out its wrinkles very easily and quickly — no need to steam or iron (unless you’re in a rush!).
