We have been slowly processing through salvage bolts from North of West, which are a mix of woven and knit fabrics that have been painstakingly dyed and printed, using all organic fibers and dyes. This beautiful, woven tencel feels soft and silky, like sueded silk. It drapes beautifully, while still having a gorgeous opacity.
Folx have asked us to make a dress with sleeves for the late Summer / early Fall, and this garment will surely deliver. It is light-weight and breathable, with a swingy skirt that will make it wonderful on a hot day, but will transition perfectly into chillier weather when paired with tights, boots, etc. It has big, roomy pockets at the sides, and the sleeves are a subtle bishop sleeve that will still fit beneath a cardigan or blazer.

We love the stunning print on this art nouveau floral, as well as the unique, vibrant orange and sienna tones. This is a super silky, drapey overlay Dress. Crafted from lightweight but structured organza, this exclusive dress features a gathered waist with a full skirt.

These garments are true to size, but if you're not sure, go ahead and size up because it will just add extra flow to the skirt (it's a trapeze style -- ie very A-line).
We do not include a slip with this overlay dress, but we recommend that finding a universal slip (for any/all overlay garments you may own) as these undergarments are actually a very particular, personal item.
This is an oversized, trapeze style dress. Meant to be billowy and flowy, with loose, dropped sleeves. Please use our size chart for reference and see the flat lay chart below. The fabric is a sublimated print on poly-chiffon that is light weight, and very drapey.
