Ekoni

Material: Linen, but we can also make wool on order.

Description: A very elegant dress with a fitted waist, which can also be made without waist shaping upon request. The skirt section is expanded with triangular pleats, but if there is no waist shaping, the fullness is accounted for with vertical seams. It is made with French seams (finished with turned-in edges). This is essentially a corset, so no bra is needed. However, if you have a smaller bust size, it can improve the final fit. It can accommodate a waist size change of 5-8 cm, if the change is due to weight gain (this only applies to weight gain). In the case of weight loss, the gap at the front and center will become too small and cannot be adjusted. A chemise is required.
