B-Grade Pastel Playground Clown Jumperskirt

*** THESE ARE B GRADE, EACH DRESS COMES WITH MINOR IMPERFECTIONS AS SHOWN IN THE PICTURES. ALL SALES ARE FINAL ****

Hi friends! While quality checking these cuties I noticed some imperfections on the dresses. Most of the imperfections are very hard to notice and truth be told, my husband couldn't tell the difference in them. I personally just dont feel comfortable sending these ones out for the same cost as the dresses that didnt have imperfections, so now yall get a deal!

Each dress has different imperfections and can be shown in the photos listed here as well as a description written below:

Size 1: 
Dress A- This dress doesn't have any sort of printing errors however it does have one error with the sewing of the garment. When the bottom hem was sewn it used a tension too high or the stitch length is too small (I'm not a sewing expert) but the end result is that the hem is a little tight or puckered for a little bit of the dress. This error was a bit hard to capture in the photos but it is noticable close up.

Dress B- This dress also doesn't have any sort of printing errors, however there is a solid 2 inches in the waist band of the lining that is not serged. It is sewn with a straight stitch so it is still connected but it doesn't have the stetch or durability as the regular dresses.

Dress C: This dress only has a minor printing error on one of the purple stripes on the back of the skirt. The fabric must have had a small piece of string on it when it was printed so when the string was removed, it resulted in a white (unprinted) line. This little line is just short of a centimeter and probably isnt very noticable unless you are up very close.

Size 2: 
Dress A- This dress had a little issue with the hemming of the bottom part of the skirt. There was about 2 inches of the hem that missed the sewing needle and were open when I got them. I personally hemmed the bottom part so now there are no loose fabric but a little bit got away from me, so its not the best sewing job of my career. Since you can see the two sewing lines, I decided to keep it as a B grade dress. But you would only be able to notice this part if you were inspecting the sewing  on the inside of the hem.

Dress B- This dress had a little issue with the hemming of the bottom part of the skirt. There was about 2 inches of the hem that missed the sewing needle and were open when I got them. I personally hemmed the bottom part so now there are no loose fabric  Since you can see the two sewing lines, I decided to keep it as a B grade dress. But you would only be able to notice this part if you were inspecting the sewing  on the inside of the hem.

Dress C- This dress has only a slight imperfection on the collar which are a couple of little creases before the ribbon. I believe when they were adding the interfacing to the collar part they accidently created these little creases when ironing it OR when sewing on the ribbon portion, the fabric buckled. Either way the imperfections are a little noticable when you're close up but definately can't be seen from a couple feet away. 

Dress D- This dress has two very minor imperfections on it. The first imperfection is the purple ribbon on one of the collar bits. It has a little pull in the ribbon itself results in a little almost circle like pattern in the ribbon. The second imperfection is a small dot on one of the blue stripes. I tried to hand wash this little area but whatever got put on it didnt come out with a little bit of laundry detergent. Both of these imperfections are really hard to spot unless you're looking specifically for them. When I found the spot on the ribbon, I thought really hard on whether I should consider this a B grade, but then I found the little spot and figured I had to now. 

REGULAR PRODUCT DESCRIPTION BELOW:

Honk Honk! Time to make way for some cute clowns! Inspired by those parachute tents that we used to all play with in gym class when we were younger. You know, the ones that ballooned up and you sat inside on the edge. Well those always made me so happy so I thought I would make it into a dress but adding my little spin on it (aka adding clown elements). 

Jumperskirt Details:

The Jumperskirt is made with full ruching on the back to allow for all sorts of different body shapes and sizes. The dress also features three adjustable button holes on the straps and a removable waist tie. The dress features custom dyed green lace on the side of the straps along with yellow dyed lace attached to the dress liner at the bottom.  The front blue bow is pinned to the front of the bodice (therefore it is not removable, sorry). We attempted to make this bow removable only to find it always falling forward. On the left side of the bodice is a red invisible zipper that goes from the top of the bodice to a little bit below the waist line. The final production of this dress will also feature pockets!

The model is 5'6'' with a 120cm bust and is wearing size 2 of the dress. The Bodice does NOT come with the jumper skirt. But you can find this Blouse at Night Whisper Lolita.

Sizing:

The full production of this dress will be in four different sizes. 

There is a little bit of an overlap between each of the sizes to accommodate any body size fluctuations. If you're asking for any size recommendations I would suggest to stay within the range that you normally see yourself fluctuating between. Example: If you are around the 50" bust mark, but you normally fluctuate up to 52" then I would suggest you order size 3. But if you fluctuate down to 48" then I would suggest you size down to Size 2. If you have any sizing questions, please let me know and I will give my recommendation! I can happily exchange sizes when needed if you see my Exchanges/return policy here.

Material: 

The outside material is a polyester material due to the type of printing method used (sublimation). The lining is a polyester blend similar to any "silky/smooth" dress liner.

However I want to preface that by saying the material itself "feels" like a thicker cotton material. I have brought this dress to a couple of different folk to try on and they all thought that it was cotton. I personally have a lot of sensory issues and this doesn't set off any of it. 

Wash instructions: Hand wash in cold water, Air dry only. Due to the poof balls especially, this dress is not meant to be in the washing machine. DO NOT PUT THIS IN THE DRYER.

Changes made from the sample pictured to the full production:

The invisible zipper will be red so it is less visible. If you look clearly on this first sample, it has a white zipper shown. The printing order of the stripes on the back will be altered slightly so there are not two of the same color stripes next to each other at the seam. And the most exciting part, there will be pockets added!
