Why do you pre-order
Why do you pre-order
Our “MADE TO ORDER” styles are limited-edition treasures, crafted just for you when you place your order. Instead of sitting on racks waiting for a home, these pieces are made after you’ve chosen your size. This approach helps us cut down on fabric waste and avoid leftover stock—keeping things kinder to the planet and oh-so-sustainable.

Why do we run pre-orders?
Why do we run pre-orders?
Put simply:
Pre-orders guarantee your place in line for a dress that won’t be restocked. Ever.
When you preorder:
- You get a discount (patience should be rewarded).
- Your dress is made just for you — no guessing, no scarcity panic.
- You shop sustainably by choosing slow fashion over churn-and-burn trends.
It’s fashion for grown-ups with taste.
The wearable equivalent of a deep breath.

🎀 Tie-front neckline for a touch of vintage flair
🌸 Soft puff sleeves for comfort + style
✨ Stretch fabric (95% Polyester, 5% Spandex) for an easy fit
A sweet little top with just the right amount of retro romance. The Elsie is cut from a soft, stretchy poly-spandex blend that hugs without clinging, finished with a tie-front bow and gathered neckline that can swing from playful to polished. Short puffed sleeves add a dash of vintage charm, while the lightweight fabric makes it easy to wear tucked into skirts or paired with denim.
An opulent pastel dream of powder-blue bows, blushing pink ribbons, and the queen of hearts herself — Marie Antoinette. This print is all sugared whispers and rococo flirtation, like a love letter written in frosting. Perfect for anyone whose love language is luxury.
