- INFO
Our Crossback Dress is the backless dress you’ve been dreaming of… The ties wrap at the front or back with an elastic waist at the back to make sure you get a great fit. Similar to The Pinafore, this design has thinner ties that cross over at the back, a lower cut front, more coverage at the sides and an asymmetric wrapped skirt. Perfect worn alone, or layered over you favourite knit or tee!
FIT CHECK
Shoulder straps cross over your back, through loops in the bodice before crossing again at your lower back. Tie here or wrap around your waist again - there is plenty of length! With these ties you can also adjust where the neckline and waist sit on your body - pull it up higher or lower to position in the right place.
Sarah and Emma wear a small in velvet and Becky wears an XL in green splash - she has 2XL hips but there is plenty of room in the skirt for her to size down.

If you are in between sizes or have any specific requests don’t hesitate to get in touch. I am always happy to alter designs to create the best fit. Remember the garments are designed to be a little oversized so if you are in between sizes you can size up or down depending on whether you prefer a slim or loose fit.
All garments are made for an average height of roughly 5ft 6”. Length measurements are stipulated on each product page with an option to add or remove length but do let me know if you’d like a further adjustment.
In order to obtain your measurements please follow the guide below:
- Bust - Measure all the way around your bust at the fullest point in an everyday bra if you wear one.
- Waist - Measure all the way around the narrowest part of your waist, which normally falls around your belly button.
- Hips - Measure all the way around the widest part of your hips or top of thighs.
PAYMENTS - Pay in full or in instalments (shipping unaffected). Get in touch for a custom payment plan.
SHIPPING - Made-To-Order garments will be shipped in 3-5 weeks. Ready-To-Ship garments will be shipped in 3-4 days.
Unfortunately we have had to remove the EU and Northern Ireland as shipping options due to the new GPSR. We will keep looking into ways to change this and apologise for any inconvenience.
FABRIC CARE - Machine wash at 30, air dry (do not tumble dry), and iron on “cotton”. Some colours may fade slightly, so keep separate from other garments for first wash.
