Styling: Be creative and experiment with your styling choices for this garment. Need some inspiration? We invite you to see our styling page 'Wardrobe Shenanigans' by Melanie Hall for other ideas on how to style your Summer Breeze Dress.
Fabric: When choosing the best material for the design of the Summer Breeze Dress, the drape of the garment looks its best when made with woven fabrics that give it the flow it requires. We suggest Rayon, Tencel, Light Linen, Linen blends, Crepe (Silk or Polyester), Charmeuse, Chiffon, Georgette. Cotton Voile can also be used, but the drape won't be as nice because of the 100% cotton content. Fabric Requirements: Metres Material width 110cm
