Product Details
Whether you wear it on its own as a dress or style it with our matching Tilko Pants and Halst Scarf, the Tilko Shirt Dress is a striking addition to your year-round wardrobe. Inspired by the glam of the vintage Hollywood starlet, this versatile midi-length dress has been tailored for a premium finish with belt loops and a fabric tie added for an adjustable silhouette. As a yardage print the print will vary slightly from garment to garment making each one unique.
Material
100% French Linen
This garment has been crafted from 100% French Linen, a natural fibre from flax grown in the northern regions of France. Linen is a light, breathable fabric that is durable and strong. It wrinkles easily which is part of its appeal, it is easy to care for and becomes softer with age and wear.
Flax is a highly productive crop requiring minimal water, herbicides or pesticides to grow, making it a better environmental choice than many other natural fibres, such as conventionally grown cotton. Linen is a renewable and biodegradable fibre.
Maker
This garment was designed in Melbourne by the ELK team and made by Tongxiang Jimmy Fashions in China. Jimmy has worked with us since 2010 making both woven and knitted apparel. Jimmy is actively working with us to make workplace improvements to ensure the factory is safe and compliant.
The factory is signed up to Sedex, and undertakes regular SMETA social compliance audits.
Size and Fit
Designed to have a relaxed fit and to sit straight through the body. The key fit points to check for best size are the waist, hip and length. We recommend sizing down one to two sizes from your regular size (or if compared to the fit of our Berg, Albin and Limma Shirt Dresses which are more true to size). Linen will naturally soften with wear.
All garments are measured flat (not on body) and then doubled (except the length) to calculate the total circumference. To work out what size will suit you best, flat measure an item that fits you well and use this as a guide. Please contact us if you have any questions or need more information.
