Indio rosé-seide 

My first thought upon wrapping with Rosé was, ok, we're done, too bad I have about 7 wraps otw—don't need them.

If we lived in a palace this would be our only wrap. Have you seen Marie Antoinette? The Sofia Coppola version? This wrap belongs in that picture, the scene with the petite-fours and the Chuck Talyors in which Kirsten Dunst is trying on gown after gown while drinking Champagne.





 
In a DH the chest pass even feels like the tight bodice of your wedding gown, or your Oscar gown, or your MET gown — you choose. It is a bit girdle-like even. That's a good thing!

 


The colour is exquisite, the ecru silk is shiny (but not cheap shiny) and the pink is matte, creating incredible depth and saturation.



The Indio rows are quite narrow, as if the wrap was woven with a lot more tension in the loom, or packed tighter after each shuttle pass. The result is a firm sturdy wrap. In fact, sturdy is the word that most comes to mind when thinking of Rosé, and we think about her all the time (like when you first fall in love and you can't eat or work so driven to distraction are you). She isn't airy at all, she has about the thickness of Gold Rubin, but without the looseness of the weave.



And that's just her looks!

In terms of wrapping we found her solid, strong, easy to manipulate, and extremely moldable. I had to adjust my shoulders a bit because I am a sandwicher, Rosé requires more even spreading and cupping of the shoulders.

 



In short we are thrilled to give her a home—if only it were a palace . . . guess I won't cancel those otw.
