The Portia Robe. A breathtaking floor length robe, which can be worn over many of our other pieces. Cut from a soft silk blend which has a beautiful handle and drape, the design features chic lantern sleeves, an open plunging back with a scarf tie across the shoulder blades, and a showstopping train. Perfect to pair with any of our backless dresses such as the Hecate Dress, Juno Dress, or Viola Dress, and also available as a beautiful, cropped blouse. All Rolling In Roses pieces are available in any size.
Portia is a romantic heroine found in Shakespeare’s ‘The Merchant of Venice’; an intelligent, quick-witted woman who is beautiful and wise.
“All the world desires her.
From the four corners of the earth they come
To kiss this shrine, this mortal breathing saint.”
