An understated yet striking cover-up, the Novella kimono has a classic cut and fluid drape, the heavy crepe back satin enlivened with exquisite sequinwork: hand-beaded filigree motifs in burnished bronze hues.
Signature Temperley embellishment — hand-woven in artfully arranged filigree motifs, reminiscent of Italian frescos, contemporary cuts and a playful palette add a sense of drama, enlivening classic party styles in the Novella story.
Exude an easy elegance with laissez-faire styling, allowing the dresses to take centre-stage. The sequinwork is beaded by hand for an exquisite and unique creation.

Process
Temperley prints are painstakingly hand-painted in-house. Motifs are collaged onto the body then lovingly engineered into compositions that work in harmony with the garment’s panelling, ensuring the printed fabric flows flawlessly across seam joints when the garment is constructed. The process is both meticulous and spontaneous, with an outcome that is truly unique and artisanal.
Materials
Committed to creating unique and original textiles, the Temperley team designs lace and woven fabrics in-house at our atelier, which are then crafted by our trusted partners at expert mills across the globe. We utilise best quality Italian tulle, soft and sheer, perfectly structured with a flawless drape. Another staple material includes luxurious silk, woven to create a lustrous effect, with a smooth and radiant finish, perfect for eveningwear.
Our Atelier
Imagined by our team at the creative hub and beating heart of the brand, our atelier in Somerset — infusing a bohemian spirit, intrinsically woven into the pieces, the exquisite craftsmanship, blending modern techniques with artisanal mastery.
Responsibility
With an ardent commitment to slow fashion, Temperley garments are lovingly produced in highly limited runs, and designed to last a lifetime with help of our expert Repairs & Alterations service. We do not partake in promotions or seasonal sales, and facilitate made-to-order on select garments to reduce overproduction. Visit our Responsibility page for more about our ongoing commitments.
