Swank Events April '19 Premiers the SKBW Boho Dress - “Beauty Adorns Virtue”



There are certain fashion dresses that will never go out of style 
and will always remain the talk of the town. 

This gorgeous SKBW Boho Top & Skirt Outfit is one such statement. 

From a historical standpoint, whenever I think of fashion and architecture, 
my mind immediately leads me to the charm and beauty of Tuscany.



Tuscany is known for having some of the most beautiful and artistic 
cities in the entire world. The Tuscan city of Florence is renowned 
for its architecture, paintings, sculptures and literature. 

It is known as the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance.

Perhaps the most notable art & architecture in Florence are Michelangelo’s 
David, Botticelli’s “Birth of Venus” and Brunelleschi’s Cathedral of Florence - 
which later served as the inspiration for Saint Peters dome in Rome.




Florence is also known for fashion. 

Guccio Gucci founded his well-known brand in Florence. 
Additionally, renowned fashion designer and Florence native Emilio Pucci 
is credited with establishing Italian ready-to-wear style.

For the Renaissance woman, beauty was not skin deep. 


During the renaissance period, “VIRTVTEM FORMA DECORAT,” or “Beauty adorns virtue” 
was the motto. Renaissance women were expected to dress in lavish clothing, jewelry, accessories and cosmetics to adhere to contemporary beauty standards. 


In order to be considered beautiful (and fashionable), the early modern woman 
also had to possess virtuousness. This definition of beauty reverberated 
across nearly all portraits of women from that period. 

This SKBW boho dress is very chic and on-point for Florence’s urban walks, 
art galleries and national museums. This dress is a work of art. 

It features a two piece, bandeau top neckline with lace appliques, a long 
muslin cotton fabric skirt and ribbon tied red saffron sarong.


So pamper yourself with the innovative fashion statement this dress delivers. 
It is a timeless classic inspired from the nobility of the Italian renaissance.
