Zilea – the Italian Luxury Brand

Recently founded in 2017, Zilea is an impressive Italian luxury brand. 

Zilea is an airy line of gowns and dresses that are graceful and worldly are created by using the greatest quality of silk. Zilea’s delicate pieces are made in Como, Italy, where it is known for the Museo Didattico della Seta (Educational Silk Museum).  This educational museum traces the history of this city’s silk industry.

 

Intricate Designs

To illustrate by the brand itself, “A classic Zilea dress drapes with feather-light delicacy around the body, covering only what needs to be covered … Intricately drawn motifs of exotic birds and flowers are finely inscribed on the delicate silk, evoking traditional Asian attire yet firmly rooted in Italian craftsmanship.”

So, due to its design which is similar to a kimono, this Zilea dress I am wearing is a very distinct piece. This Zilea dress wraps around the body, fitting perfectly on the midriff and accentuating the waist and hips. Because of the premium silk, the feel of this mini dress with long sleeves felt unreal against my skin. It easily flowed against the late summer breeze. And thus, I felt feminine, comfortable and beautiful.

How I Wore It

Considering the intricate designs, I paired this dress with simple white heeled mules. I thought simple shoes would be best to better complement the work of art by Zilea. Similarly, you can also pair this elegant dress with white or blue flats or whichever colored heels you like. Though, I would prefer heels with this dress since it will help accentuate the curves.

Lastly, you can wear this Zilea dress I am wearing casually or somewhere special like a date night, brunch, or reunion. On the day I wore this dress, I spent time with friends including one of my favorite photographers, Ryan Chua. Ryan and I decided to enjoy Santa Monica after a couple of events. It was a fun and memorable day.
