1. Choose your fabric by heading to our instagram fabric gallery
Each fabric has a reference number & details of which of our designs + sizes it is suitable for. Comment on the instagram post or email us via info@theemperorsoldclothes.co.uk to reserve it – we generally only have enough of each fabric for 1-2 garments so this step is really important!

Your fabric reservation lasts for 72 hours so please place your order during this time otherwise the fabric will become available to other customers.
Important: make sure to write your size, sleeve preference + fabric reference number in the order notes when you are entering your payment details.

GARMENT DETAILS:
With a comfortable loose fit cut, this boat neck a-line floaty trapeze strap dress finishes just above the knee. Handmade from scratch in your choice of fabric.
Our trapeze strap dress is a more relaxed, voluminous take on our classic shift dress.
WAYS TO WEAR:
Wear the dress alone with your favourite shoes for outfit number 1.
For all year round wear style the dress with a high-neck top underneath and ankle boots to keep you warm in the colder months.
The perfect everyday dress, our trapeze strap dress can be dressed up or down depending on what you have in your diary. Dress up with clutch bag & heels or go for a relaxed feel with a belt, basket & pumps. When the temperature drops simply add tights or long socks, ankle boots and some cashmere.
Feel good fashion! This trapeze strap dress will be created by our small team in our Brighton studio for a living wage. Every piece we make is totally unique and will not be reproduced.

Hattie –
I got a trapeze dress with bow-tie straps in a beautiful pink and lemon print fabric that is just so perfect and floaty for summer. Emperors put so many nice little touches into the dress such as using yellow bias-binding on the edges to match the lemons!
