about

Tangueras need fantastically beautiful clothing with total freedom of movement. 

That's what poema is: opulent dancewear for Argentine tango, designed for dancing late into the night. Each garment is carefully hand made from luxury materials by the designer (Hannah Louise Poston).

The listings in the poema shop are for one-of-a-kind* pieces. Shopping for poema is akin to shopping for original works of art in a gallery—if something is no longer live in the shop, then it has already sold and is unavailable. However, designs and concepts do repeat, so something similar is likely to be available soon.

new listings are posted every thursday at 10am pacific time.

fué el poema de ayer / que yo soñé, /de dorado color, /vanas quimeras del corazón...

it was the poem of yesterday/ that I dreamed, / of gilded color, / vain chimeras of the heart...

*occasionally two or three-of-a-kind!
