Hi everyone, this is Mallory! Elsie asked me to give an update on how our dress line is coming! Right away we chose designs and fabrics, then ordered sample yardage and test swatches. My biggest task so far was to draft all of the flat patterns and sew mock-up samples in plain fabric to test the fit. Today I spent a majority of the day figuring out fabric yardage, zipper lengths, and other notion specifics, so we can make our final big supply order in the morning. The rest of my week will be filled with making the dresses to be worn in the lookbook video we're filming this weekend with Brandon Goodwin and later on in the photo shoots. Our models, Sarah and Morgan, are going to look amazing! We've been dreaming up some great styling ideas ever since I arrived and shopping for accessories. The total number of garments to be produced is 165, plus a few coordinating accessories. We have been super busy, but every step along the way has been equally exciting. Love, Mallory

im so looking forward to your line of vintage new clothing.. I hoping your models are more like everyday gals than the skinny models others use. Thank you for your talents
Okay, if Sarah is a model, I’m doubting there will be any dresses larger than mayyyyyybeeeee size 10, if that.
We’re doing sizes small-large for the dress line and some XLs in our t-shirt dress line coming this Spring too. We are working on a small budget, so unfortunately we cannot make every size, but we are working very hard to include the largest range of sizes that we can. 🙂
For vintage we are working with models in many different sizes as well! Just wanted to put it out there that this is important to us…. We want to carry clothing for as many sizes as we can.
Thanks!
I’m so excited! I can’t wait to see the garments. Small size for me. lol
