Mabel dress in Gumnut Blue
Product Description
Fun and relaxed, the Mabel dress is the same as the Lulu dress in the bodice but has a gathered skirt around the waistline. The gathering is usually above the waist at the front and drops lower towards the back (as you can see in the side-on photo). This dress is a relaxed fit and has a generously sized pocket in each side seam.
The round neck provides the right amount of coverage, so you have no worries about bra straps showing or accidental cleavage reveals when you bend forward. You can also request for a lower scooped neckline.
The dress pictured has the short sleeve option. It can also be made sleeveless.
The designer behind this beautiful print is @_vivdesign. Vivian is a Norwegian, self-taught designer, working out of her home in Luxembourg. She creates simple, colourful prints with a hand-drawn feel.
When asked about her inspiration for the print Vivian said: “I wanted to make a bold, fun print. So instead of my usual sketch I made a simple collage. I then replicated this collage digitally, resisting the urge to smooth out the lines, as I wanted to retain the more rough paper cut look!” Thanks so much Vivian for this beautiful print that our fabulous customers get to adore as wearable art.

Care: We recommend turning the garment inside out and using a cold or warm hand wash or delicate setting machine wash using phosphate-free detergent. Hang to dry in the shade. Iron on the reverse side of the fabric. There may be some fading of the prints especially on designs that have large solid colour shapes. This is usual for pigment printed fabrics and can be minimised with hand washing and line drying.
