The Highland Dress - Starlit Blue
The Highland Dress - Starlit Blue
This is a ready-made garment made in a dark blue coloured organic cotton double gauze with gold foil sparkles. Available in all sizes (that are super adjustable), we have cut this piece to the standard length (without a ruffle) and a bell sleeve.
This beauty is fitted entirely with a drawstring waist (& an extra one under the bust!) so you can fit as you please. Wear nipped in for a more refined look but worn loose you will DEFINITELY be lounging at home in it too. It also features shoulder gathers for an opulent finish, and of course - POCKETS!
OPTIONS
Available in sizes 1 (XS/S/M), 2 (L/XL), 3 (2XL/3XL) and 4 (4XL/5XL). If you are in between sizes I would size down, as this is a very floaty design!
PAYMENT
Pay in full or in instalments (shipping unaffected). We have reduced the price of these ready-made pieces by £25!
SHIPPING
This is a ready-made dress and will be shipped in 3-4 working days.
ADDITIONAL INFO
-
It's not just the waist you can adjust - an elasticated wrist creates a hint of a bell sleeve worn full length, but push the elastic up to your elbow & let the fabric fall back down for an instant sleeve change!
Worried about the neckline depth? I am always happy to do a custom change here BUT, the bodice lining also folds up to create a handy modesty panel as shown in some of the images.
You can also request this design without the ruffle hem as my mum did - pictured in the burgundy colour.
Got a growing bump to think about? Not a problem, the drawstring can easily pushed a little higher and leave plenty of room for bump. My beautiful friend pictured here in the duck egg colour is actually 6 months pregnant & this dress fits her just as perfectly as it does me. And my mum.
Mum, Emma, Emma’s mum, Beth and myself all wear the Size 1. Lydia wears the Size 2 in duck egg and the Size 3 in brick. Rida wears a Size 1 with size 2 drawstring height in brown double gauze. Jo wears the Size 3 in Ivy gingham and the Size 4 in red gingham.

Standard length measures 31” from the waist and you can select “Short” or “Long” to minus or plus 2”. Please be aware this is a very relaxed style until shape is given with the drawstring so referring to our standard sizing here will give you the best idea of what size to opt for - or feel free to pop me a message to discuss!
