Sisters Ayse and Ece Ege created Dice Kayek, the best-known fashion brand in Turkey, which is based in Paris and operates in thirty-five countries worldwide. Dome is a dress that belongs to a collection intended to evoke Istanbul’s architectural and artistic heritage. Here, the garment’s lightweight white cotton organdy has been folded to echo the ribs of the lead-covered domes of the city’s mosques and palaces, while the puffed, bulbous sleeves are also reminiscent of a cupola. Ece and Ayse grew up in Turkey, and now live and work in Istanbul and Paris; Ece is the creative director of Dice Kayek and Ayse is its manager. They won the contemporary art and design Jameel Prize in 2011 and their line currently sells couture designs in Paris as well as ready-to-wear in several retail stores internationally.
