  • Chest measurements are made from armpit to armpit. Length measurements are made from shoulder to hemline. The handmade nature of our dresses means the measurements will be subject to a tolerance of approx +/- 1cm. Smocking in itself is an inexact artform, and also provides an elasticity to the dress’ fit.
