The Tulip Dress

This is my bestseller, and most complimented dress. She truly is unique to you and your imagination.

Wear this a classic tulip skirted dress, with pockets (!), for a casual outing, to work with a T-shirt or crisp white shirt underneath, or dress it up with boots and a leather jacket for evening wear or a fun night out. Also a great maternity dress, and for postpartum / breastfeeding with some customisations through consultation, including lowering neckline, crossover neckline, pinafore top, skirt length or adding sleeves.

Price AU$180.00 which includes initial consultation discussion, dress construction, fitting if needed and one set of alterations.

Additional alterations will incur extra costs, as will particularly tricky customisations and/or fabric choices, please note the Alterations item.

Notions: matching thread, plus one package of 6mm elastic if this option is preferred (as per pink linen dress).
