FABRIC

The Shift Dress is designed for light-medium weight woven linen, cotton lawn, rayon or viscose.
Try a winter version (with longer hem) in woven light to mid weight wools or wool blends


*Please also note that all (new) fabric should be pre-washed in case of shrinkage. 100% cotton & linen will shrink during the first wash. It doesn't hurt to be safe and remove any dodgy chemical build-up that may have occurred during printing anyway.

2. Print at home Pattern Tiles (PAH=Print at home)
For printing in A4 or US Letter on a home printer. Printing at home is the most cost-effective, and sticking your pattern tiles together to make your full size pattern is easy. Further information for printing at home can be found in our Resources section here. 

3. Large scale Pattern file (AO) for taking to your local Print Shop

You can use the ADOBE LAYERS FEATURE to open the PAH pattern file and print only the size you need (and eliminate the "noise" of the unwanted sizes). You can also use the URL and bookmark links within the file to quickly access information and support. Download Adobe Reader for free (for Windows and Mac) here.

Some white cast
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Works well, but definitely leaves white cast. It did better for me than it did for my partner but it was hard to get this to rub in and lot look white on him. Smells decent. I will continue to use.

Your makeup won't get ruined! ❤️
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I'm new to skincare and I didn't know we were supposed to wear sunscreen! 😱 Turns out it's arguably the most important step of skincare. First, I like the texture of this sunscreen. It's not greasy, it's velvety and smooth. It feels nice on my skin. I used this for the first time yesterday, and I just want those of you to know who are considering buying this, it applies well against makeup! That was one of my main concerns. I did my skincare with this sunscreen as a final step, then put on my makeup. The sunscreen acted as a primer, honestly, so I skipped primer. When I reapplied the sunscreen hours later, my makeup didn't smear! Instead I had a nice, healthy glow to my skin. I actually think it enhanced my makeup; my makeup seemed to last longer than usual. If you find yourself to be TOO glowy after a while, just apply a bit of translucent powder and your makeup will stretch even longer. Bonus: It fits nicely in your purse! Good for people like me with a million things they insist on carrying around.

Works well when properly applied
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I try to always buy the highest SPF that I can find. This one fits the bill. If you apply it thoroughly all over and then reapply every few hours, you shouldn't get burned. I've worn it to the water park numerous times now. I have very sensitive skin, and it's given me no issues. I even put it on my face, just being careful not to get too close to my eye area. Once it absorbs into your skin, it doesn't feel too sticky like some other sunscreens can. Just be aware that it will leave a white residue on your bathing suit if you get it on there, but I've always been able to wash it out and that's a small price to pay for proper sun protection!

Protected Our Skin and Smells Good
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff! My husband and I bought it as a last minute grab for our honeymoon and it was well worth it! I'm very sensitive to the sun AND to sunscreens, so I needed something with simple ingredients that would also protect my skin without breaking me out. This not only kept away the burning rash I get from the sun, but protected my husband and I from any sunburn at all. It worked not only in dry conditions, but it stayed on for hours after we swam in the ocean. We also liked the fact that it smelled herbal, almost like pizza/Italian seasoning. That didn't bother us because we both hate the smell of most sunscreens. If you have sensitive skin or are looking for a more natural product, I highly recommend this!
