Sarissa Designs Founder, Sophia Nguyen, immigrated to Sydney, Australia from Vietnam. Later, bringing the idea of connecting their Vietnamese heritage with her adopted home in Australia and fusing together timeless eco friendly 100% Shantung and Satin Silk garments, creating an Independent Australian Fashion Label from 2003 to late 2000’s. Retailers for Sarissa were mainly based in New South Wales and Queensland, eventually launching in Victoria in 2007, with a notable retail footprint in the South Pacific.
Hand-loomed by silk villages with traditional techniques, the clothing was designed to be both versatile and suitable for the Australian climate. Highly skilled artisans showcasing their remarkable hand beaded and embroidered workmanship using modern designs, the brands defining concept was to transform luxurious, hand loomed fabrics into timeless pieces and everyday functional clothing.
While Sarissa is no longer in operation as an active brand, they are still available throughout the circular economy. These pieces available through our clearance page was a lucky find, of new, never worn items found in storage from a previous retail shop that was located in Brisbane, Queensland.
A-line skirts are fitted at the waist and gradually widen toward the hem, mimicking the shape of the capital letter A. This classic silhouette reamains a staple across contemporary fashion because it flatters most body shapes and highlighting the waist and skimming over the hips.
Elastic waist A-line skirts with ruffles combine the ultimate all - day comfort with a playful, feminine texture. The gathered elastic band sits comfortably around your natural waist, while the cascading tiered ruffles or ruffled hems expand outward to emphasise the signature ‘A’ silhouette.
This garment has been carefully hand dyed and crafted out of delicate fabric. Hand wash separately in cold water, rinse and drip dry in shade. Dry cleanable. Do not iron.
