CUSTOM EMMA DRESS
Made to order A-Line shift dress inspired by the effortless silhouette of the 1960s.
Slight bust shaping, a scoop neckline and a low back make this an easy to wear dress that’s perfect for summer.
With contrast hand stitching around the armholes and neckline and finished with a crochet bow tie across the back.
If you’d like a specific colour for the embroidered edging please choose from the ‘custom colour’ chart and pop it in the sizing form - otherwise I will choose a colour that compliments the fabric.
Emma looks her best when made out of a slightly thicker fabric to hold that A-Line shape. Cotton canvas, denim or a thicker silk works really well - ideal upcycle for vintage curtains.
For up to size 12 you will need 1m of fabric at 140cm wide, for sizes 14-18 you will need 1.5m or for sizes 20 or larger 2m. If your fabric has a print with an obvious direction please add an extra 0.5m to the required amount.
Any leftover fabric can be sent back to you with your dress.
