CUSTOM KATE DRESS
Made to order 1950s inspired midi dress with collar detail.
In a timeless vintage fit and flare silhouette, with fitted bodice and a full gathered skirt that makes you want to twirl. Featuring a concealed zip in the back, chunky self cover buttons and side seam pockets.
Kate looks her best made with a stiffer fabric which holds it’s shape. A thicker cotton, canvas, denim or silk would work beautifully.. making it a great choice for a curtain upcycle.
For up to a UK size 14 you will need 2.5m of fabric at 140cm wide. For sizes 16 and up you will need 3m at 140cm wide. If your fabric has a print with an obvious direction, or is less than 140cm wide please add an extra 0.5m to the required amount. If you are wanting to add short sleeves please add an extra 0.5m.
Comes sleeveless as standard or you can choose to add cute short sleeves. If you prefer a mini length.. please order via the Custom Alice Dress.
You can also choose your fabric from our vintage fabric library
