How to Measure

To choose the correct size for you, measure your body as follows:

Bust
Measure around fullest part

Waist
Measure around natural waistline

Hips
Measure 20cm down from the natural waistline

With all our products, we try and keep the same measurements, so that if you purchased say two different styles of mini skirt, the fit would be of a similar nature to the other, however, in our more tailored silhouette styles, depending on the fabric that we use, there might be some more leeway regarding stretch. Our current knitwear as an example is oversized, so we would always inform you of any material size change of a designer piece, for you to take into consideration the best fit for you.

Behind the Garment

Part of our first collection the Bardot is a black strapless mini dress with the skirt part being fully pleated. Made from a polyester mixture, it features a flattering silhouette. With four nonfunctional gold colour cluster buttons at the centre point of the bodice. There are also four gold cluster functional side split buttons, which adds to the design, the Bardot strapless part pleated mini dress took four years to oversee, before its release, combining a modern classic look with a quality tailoring fit.

The Story Behind the Design

The design detail started when we were looking for a gift for a family member, we thought a nice black plain mini skirt would be ideal, so through the internet we looked for a designer black mini skirt, It was astonishing to see that the prices ranged from £400 upwards, our initial thoughts were, that we could design and produce a better product within the right price range, so the start of the journey began about four years ago with this project, there was a lot of soul searching and trial and error along the way, the brief was simple, it had to be custom made using the right material, the right gsm, the right design, the right price, limited to 1,000 pieces only, so that we could retain the exclusivity of this product, as well as the finished item had to make us smile, we sincerely hope that after purchasing and wearing the Bardot strapless part pleated mini dress, you will share a smile as well.

We had decided whilst working on the Charley mini skirt that part of our first collection, would be a range of black skirts and mini dresses, so the Bardot is part of the collection, little did we realise then, what lay ahead.
