Teadress

'Relaxed fit' gives a looser silhouette with extra space in the waist whereas 'Regular fit' is more fitted to the body in the bodice

'Classic bodice length' means the waistline of the dress will sit along your natural waistline. 'Empire bodice length' means a shorter bodice length which sits higher than your natural waistline (please note: your waist measurement will need to be taken at this point on the torso for this dress order + the skirt length will begin from this height)

'Full gather' is our classic skirt fit for this dress type. 'Minimal gather' is less gathered fabric along the waistline and less volume in the skirt

IMPORTANT: Please make sure you have checked if there is enough of your chosen fabrics for the different elements of your dress with our team before placing your order

Please note: sleeveless garments with attached shoulder ties will mean that the garment opens completely at the shoulder when untied. Garments with sleeves with attached shoulder ties will mean that the shoulder ties are purely decorative

Fine cotton lining works with most fabric types, cupro lining works well with drapey fabrics
Please note: you will need to add a lining if you are adding bound pockets to your garment unless you are designing with a heavyweight fabric

Concealed zips are more hard-wearing - we recommend these for heavier fabrics + more fitted garments; invisible zips are lighter weight + a bit more delicate
