The Marcia dress- Orange linen check
The Marcia dress features a classic 60s shift silhouette with super flattering princess seams and two pockets deep enough to keep your secrets, potions, hope and dreams in. This Marcia dress is made from deadstock fabric from France, with vibrant orange and purple tones and a fine gold lurex stripe that runs the length of the fabric. Two ties come from the front princess seams to tie a delectable bow in the front, or can be tied in the back if that's more your style (options, we love options).
The dress is lined in 100% cotton making it a breathable dream in the summer and perfect for layering in the cooler months.

Get the right fit: This dress is semi-fitted and is designed to have a little room to move. The fabric has no stretch so your bust and waist measurements shouldn’t exceed the garment measurements.
You should aim to have 1-3 inches ease between your body measurements and the garment measurements. However, if you prefer a firmer fit, your body measurements can be the same as the dress measurements but must not exceed the dress measurements as the fabric has no stretch (it's advised to avoid tension on the seams caused by wearing the dress too firmly: if there is 1-3 inches ease then it ensures longevity of the garment and avoids damage to the delicate fabric)
For reference, Ash is wearing a size S in the product photos and is an Aus size 8-10.
