    Emperors does it again! I managed to snap up some gorgeous Liberty fabric for my dungaree mini and it’s been just delicious to wear. The team were super helpful and mocked up potential necklines to help me choose – all in all, a very happy customer over here!

  2. Verified owner Divya Desa (verified owner)

    Emperor’s dungaree-minis are probably my favourite (after the teadress of course) garment to order. I have a handful of dunga-minis (as I like to call them) in different types of fabric – from cotton to corduroy, and they’re the best wardrobe investment I ever made, because they’re so easy to either dress up or keep casual, and work perfectly across all the different seasons. I wear mine with cotton t-shirts and sandals in the summer, and pair them with colourful tights, wooly jumpers, and boots in the winter. I usually go for the hook-and-bar fastenings, bound pockets (though side-seam pockets are actually my new go-to), a tapered bib, hem frills, and a bit of elastic in the waistband (for garment longevity). Highly recommend getting yourself one too! 🙂

  3. Verified owner Helen Bovey (verified owner)

    Dungaree mini dresses are wonderful for both every day and evening attire. They are versatile for a number of different fabric types, especially thicker fabrics- I’ve got a wool pair and a thick cotton pair which work really well in this style. And made to measure, so perfect for my body.
