CHANNEL YOUR INNER GODDESS WITH DI PETSA / THE BRAND BEHIND THE WET-LOOK
By Lauren Knowles // Digital Editor
In a formed-to-figure mesh dress made to create a wet illusion, Bella Hadid blessed our Instagram feeds with the ultimate summer piece. Draped and stitched to wet perfection, it’s the ‘Wetlook mini dress’ by Di Petsa.
Greek designer Dimitra Petsa is the artist behind the brand blowing up the fashion world with its signature soaked garments. Though we love Bella’s look, we’ve seen glimpses of Di Petsa before from sis Gigi Hadid and Vogue cover star Paloma Elsesser, among others.
The intricate art of creating a wet-look with fabric is one fashion is obsessed with, and so are we. Petsa revealed to Vogue that this look is a response to the oppression surrounding bodily fluids that society hides—like sweat and tears. The wet-look celebrates the idea of wetness. Channeling divine femininity—each handmade dress appears perfectly sculpted, dripping with ethereality.
Though we must admit, we’ve saved the best for last—Di Petsa does bridal. Named the ‘Wet Brides’, soon-to-be wed Di Petsa clients have can custom dresses created by the brand for their wet-look walk down the aisle.
