Chirky — a generous, one-of-a-kind dress with personality to spare. The name (late 19th century for “cheerful”) feels perfectly apt — part quirky, part cheerful, all heart.
Features
Relaxed, roomy silhouette with an adjustable drawstring waist so you can cinch it in or let it float.
Gathered skirt for movement and drama.
Rounded neckline and short sleeves finished with my own hand-sewn binding.
Of course: pockets. Always pockets.
Versatile year-round: layer over tees and tights or dress up with heels and jewellery.
Materials & vibe
Made from curated designer floral cottons in lime and mustard, paired with a soft linen check in chartreuse + white. Bright, sunlit, and quietly unexpected — the kind of combo that sparks compliments.
Every fabric comes from my personal textile collection: remnants, roll ends, treasures sourced near and far, past and present. Each piece is unique — when it’s gone, it’s gone.
Measurements
Bust/waist (actual garment): 126 cm — please compare with your own measurements.
Centre back length from base of neck: 104 cm.
Note: model “Esmeralda” is small; I’ve included an AI image I created to give an idea of the dress on a ‘person’.
Made for people who want something colorful, comfortable and utterly individual — wear Chirky with boots, sandals or sneakers and let it tell your story.
