Jacket CARIATIDE
THE ORIGIN
Erechtheion, Athens, fifth century BC. A temple that refused to level the sacred rock beneath it, and bent itself to the stone instead. Inside it stood a well of salt water, and ancient writers recorded that in a south wind it answered with the sound of waves. Outside, six women carry the roof: the folds of the chiton repeat the fluting of a column, and a heavy braid reinforces the most fragile point — the neck.
Beauty doing the work of structure.
THE MOTIF
Central portico, starfish, shells, coral and volute forms across the field.
How to Measure
Bust
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping it level across your back and parallel to the floor. The tape should be snug but not compressing—you should be able to slide two fingers underneath.
Natural Waist
Find the narrowest point of your torso—usually 2–3 cm above your navel. Bend gently to one side: the crease that forms is your natural waist. Wrap the tape around this point.
Hips
Stand with your feet together. Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your hips and seat—typically 18–23 cm below your natural waist. Keep the tape parallel to the floor.
