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.

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!
