Jupe maxi en soie Mulberry teinte Récif de la Niagara, aux panneaux alternés de jacquard marbré soulignés de surpiqûres et d'inserts en georgette semi-transparente.

For several months now, he hadn't stopped thinking about her. 
Their relationship was unfolding at a breathless pace — like the roaring Niagara Falls.
But he didn't want to plunge into that abyss — completely and irrevocably.

Today, they were supposed to visit an exhibition by some unknown artist showcasing his aquatic works.
They had agreed to meet right at the entrance of the gallery, as she had softly declined his offer to pick her up this time.
Lazily scrolling through his phone, he knew that she would, as always, be late.

But when he caught sight of her stepping out of the arriving car, astonishment froze on his face.

She was as breathtaking as ever, but her ankle-length maxi skirt, with its overwhelming volume of aqua-mint hue, washed over him like that very Niagara Falls.
As if pouring from a majestic reef — from the fitted high waist section that accentuated her stately, graceful silhouette — cascades of semi-sheer georgette rushed downward like torrents of swirling water, through which the faint outlines of her legs could be fleetingly glimpsed.
The georgette inserts alternated with folds of opaque marble jacquard, reminiscent of a wet stone with rows of decorative stream-like topstitching trickling down its edges.

“Hi,” he said, finally recovering from the shock. “I can’t even begin to imagine what you would wear to an exhibition of fire. Maybe we should skip this gallery altogether? I have a far more interesting proposition.”

Laughing, she threw her arms around him and replied, “Oh no, we are definitely going inside.”

And at that exact moment, the sweeping hem of her skirt, which held ample space for the two of them, swept over him.
And he… was only falling faster into the abyss — completely and irrevocably.
