Mélisse by Brittani Bumb // “We were talking about all the things we missed, from the salt-kissed air breezing against our skin to the warm sand to the pure bliss felt while lounging in the sun, reading a good book. All these images and feelings came together to inspire the MÉLISSE design, an outfit that effortlessly catches the summer air in its flowing hem.” MÉLISSE is a three-in-one pattern with many beautiful variations. Make yours as an airy and festive dress, a simple
maxi or midi skirt, or a cute summer top. The possibilities are endless! Sewn in Verb's silk printed with marigold petals.

Choose your size based on your bust circumference. Add a recommended positive ease of 2–3"/5–8 cm. Pick the size that is the best match for your bust. If you are between sizes, you can grade between one or more sizes for both the bodice and the skirt.

Violet by Ivona Fodora // It’s a flirty and festive creation inspired by the movement and flow of pleated fabric and the interactions between plain and pleated surfaces. As a versatile statement piece, it’s perfect to wear throughout the year. The off-the-shoulder sleeves are created by making irregular knife pleats around the arm, and they’re the highlight of the design. The garment is constructed using an A-line base dress or a top that fits various body types. Sewn in Verb's silk printed with coreopsis flowers.
