Tiered Linen Maxi Dress

Cut full from the shoulder and let out again at the hip, so the whole dress moves at once.

• Handmade to your measurements in our Jaipur workshop, from 100% linen
• Long bishop sleeve, gathered at the shoulder and drawn into a smocked cuff.
• V neckline with soft gathers at the shoulder seam.
• Rows of smocking at the shoulder head and at the wrist.
• A dropped tier seam at the hip releases into a deep gathered flounce.
• Falls to the ankle.
• Side seam pockets.
• No closures: it pulls on over the head.

The cloth

100% washed linen. It is soft from the first wear and softer after every one. It creases, and it will keep creasing. A linen dress worn all day looks like a linen dress worn all day, and that is the point of it. Cut in any of our thirty linens: pick the colour on this page, or choose Custom and name it in your order note.

The fit

Nothing is cut before you order it. Choose a size from the guide, or choose Custom and send your bust, waist, hips and height in the order note and we cut the pattern to those numbers. A shorter hem, a longer sleeve, a higher neckline: ask in the same note. The custom fit and the changes are both free.

Care

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a little mild detergent. Hand wash if you prefer.
• Hang to dry in the shade. A low tumble is fine; high heat shortens the life of the fibre.
• Iron on the reverse while the cloth is still slightly damp, or leave the creases. We leave them.
• Wash with like colours for the first few washes.
