Description
The Blossom Day Dress is a timeless nod to 1950s everyday elegance.
Made from vintage floral fabric in soft shades of pink and orange, this piece captures the charm and ease of mid-century style. The design features a classic shirt dress silhouette with a row of orange buttons down the front, adding a subtle pop of color and detail.
A fully pleated skirt creates beautiful movement and volume, while the fitted bodice and short sleeves keep the shape balanced and easy to wear. A side zipper allows for a smooth, tailored fit without interrupting the clean lines of the design.
Light, feminine, and endlessly wearable, this is a dress made for slow days, sunny afternoons, and moments that call for something quietly special.

About This Collection
This collection drop is especially meaningful to me. Every dress was designed, cut, sewn, and finished entirely by hand.
The fabric alone is an investment, and the hours of work, detail, and skill that go into each piece are significant. These are not quick makes, and they are not mass produced.
Release Details
There will only be one of each dress available. Once they are gone, they are truly gone.
If you have been waiting to own one of my dresses, this is your moment.
Custom Garments
The dresses listed here are already made and ready to ship.
If you are interested in a custom garment made in your size, commissions begin at $600 plus supplies, depending on the design, complexity, and whether I am able to take on the project.
Garment Care
Most dresses can be machine washed on delicate and hung to dry with the exception of silk and satin based garments. I strongly recommend skipping the dryer as dryers tend to shorten the life of clothing and can damage the shape and fibers of handmade garments.
Cotton fabrics will naturally wrinkle after washing. If ironing is not your thing, dry cleaning is always a perfectly fine option.
Any garments made from silk or satin should be dry cleaned only.
Shipping and Return Policy
Each garment will ship from my studio within 1 to 3 business days via USPS Priority Mail.
