Kirrily Johnston style mixes elegance with innovation, focusing on luxurious fabrics and high quality craftsmanship. Kirrily's clothes are tailored yet maintain a modern edge and a certain artistic quality with details like patchwork styling, beading and appliqué. A perfect example is a beautiful baby-doll dress that combines leather, sequins and silk georgette.
