Corpino-gilet sagomato in serpente nacré e inserti scamosciati neri
This is the text next to a photo of a model wearing a dress with a gilet over it in a fashion magazine. I've found mother of pearl and pearly as possible meanings. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Antonio Berardi's collection was so much better than last season's, 90% wow and chock-full of ideas. In gorgeous colours such as grape, navy and eau de nil, Berardi showed a raft of dresses - knife-pleated chiffon printed with giant flowers, pearlised snakeskin</> tubes and stripy calf-length velvet columns with deep V-necks.

Nacre, also known as mother of pearl, is an organic-inorganic composite material produced by some mollusks as an inner shell layer. It is strong, resilient, and iridescent. For more information on shell structure see: Mollusc shell.
This substance is called "mother of pearl" because it is literally the "mother", or creator, of true pearls.

Pearl Nacre Defined
Nacre, also known as mother-of-pearl, is a crystalline substance that creates the iridescent visual effect attributed to pearls. Nacre is an organic substance secreted by mollusks over an intruding irritant or implanted nucleus. It is a strong and resilient material that is lightweight and transparent, allowing light to pass through its surface, creating a subtle glow on the pearl’s surface.
