And Givenchy placed Fancy Stones as eye
catching details on to loose matchmakers for

from tightening your belts!

The sailor's knot of fashion
The base is a Crystal Mesh strap ironed onto
organza and sewn together to get the look of
glamorous and sparkling ropes – all different
colours interweaved with each other but could
also be worn separately; the Crystal Mesh ropes
are bejeweled with Fancy Stones in silver

Pearls
ENJOY!
