These three pieces are traditional bridal dresses from Siwa Oasis. In the past, the bride would wear them on her wedding day, and nowadays they are worn during the “morning after” for three days while receiving guests for congratulations.  Each piece is fully hand-embroidered, taking approximately six months to craft. The symbols on the dresses hold deep meanings, such as the fish symbol representing fertility and prosperity, and the spider symbol, believed to protect from black magic. The "khamsa" symbol is for protection from envy.  The embroidery colours are inspired by nature, with shades of green, yellow, red, burgundy, brown, and black—reflecting the ripening stages of dates, as Siwa is one of the most famous date-producing oases in Egypt.  Size: Free Size  Material: Satin  Dry Clean Only (colours may bleed).  Some pieces feature natural buttons and shells.
