Other Dresses with Balloon Sleeve and Tiered Ruffle Skirt in Tencel Lyocell

Other Dresses with Balloon Sleeve and Tiered Ruffle Skirt in Tencel Lyocell

This Other Dresses with Balloon Sleeve and Tiered Ruffle Skirt in Tencel Lyocell is developed for brands that need one dress to stay identical across seasons, colourways and reorders. The specification below — Tencel Lyocell body, Off-the-Shoulder neckline, balloon sleeve and a ankle length hem — is written into the tech pack before sampling starts, so the approved sample and the bulk shipment are the same garment.

Built in Tencel Lyocell, the cloth behaves like this: closed-loop cellulosic with a cool touch and low shrinkage. We confirm the fabric lot, run lab dips for your shade and keep a reference swatch against every future order, which is what stops the drift most private-label programmes suffer after the second reorder.

Design Details

• Silhouette — Trapeze cut, balanced for movement and for how the dress sits when the wearer is seated.
• Neckline — Off-the-Shoulder, finished clean on the inside so it holds its line after washing.
• Sleeve — Balloon Sleeve, graded across the full size set so armhole depth stays proportional.
• Detail — Tiered Ruffle Skirt, placed to specification and costed per position.
• Length — Ankle Length, adjustable in 2 cm steps from the base spec.
• Colourway — Dove Grey, Pantone TCX matched with lab dips before cutting.

Specification

Fabric Notes

We source Tencel Lyocell against your price target, then confirm weight, shrinkage and hand feel before a metre is cut. Because the bulk lot is reserved at sampling stage, the approved sample reflects what the finished shipment will feel like — not a substitute cloth. Wash-test results for shrinkage and colour fastness are recorded on the first bulk lot and kept as the reference for reorders.

Size & Fit Guide

Measurements below are garment measurements in centimetres with standard ease for ankle length. Send us your own block and we grade to it, including height-adjusted lengths and regional size conversions for EU, UK and US charts.

Fit notes: the Trapeze holds its shape best with 5% elastane in the shell; for other dresses we recommend a size-set fit session before grading, so the waist placement sits correctly on the shortest and tallest sizes in the run.

Production Process

1. Tech pack review and fabric confirmation against your target price
2. Lab dips for Dove Grey plus trims and hardware sourced to match
3. Pattern making from your block, then grading across the size set
4. First prototype in Tencel Lyocell with the Tiered Ruffle Skirt detail applied
5. Fit session, revision, then a pre-production sample in bulk fabric
6. Bulk cutting with marker efficiency controlled to limit shade variation
7. Enzyme Wash and finishing under in-line inspection
8. Final AQL 2.5 inspection, pressing and packing to your barcode specification

Styling & Occasions

Built for Travel Capsule — one dress that covers several occasions across a trip. Typical customer profiles for this specification:

• Capsule collections where one block is developed across several fabrics
• Retail chains covering a core colour plus two seasonal shades
• Boutique labels building a signature dress silhouette that reorders each season
• Bridal-party and occasion programmes requiring matched shades across sizes

Styling: wear it alone with flat sandals for day, or with a structured layer and heels for evening. The other dresses reads casual or formal depending on the accessories, which is why it sits well in a small capsule range.

Quality Control

Every bulk order is checked against the approved sample for shade, hand feel, measurements and workmanship. We record shrinkage, colour fastness and seam strength on the first bulk lot and hold the data as the reference for reorders, so other dresses batches stay comparable over time. Inspection photos and the measurement report are sent before the balance payment is due.

FAQ

What files do you need for prints and embroidery?

Vector artwork (AI, EPS, PDF) gives the cleanest result. For raster artwork please supply 300 dpi at final print size. Embroidery is digitised in-house and we return a sew-out photo for approval.

How long does sampling take?

A first prototype in Tencel Lyocell is typically ready 14 working days after the tech pack is confirmed. Revisions add roughly 3 days each, and we send fit photos at every stage.

How does shipping work?

We quote EXW, FOB, CIF and DDP. Bulk normally ships by consolidated sea freight, with air or express options when a launch date is at risk.

Can you match my existing size chart?

We frequently work from a client's own block. Send your grade rules and measurements and we grade to them, then produce a size-set sample for confirmation before cutting bulk.

Which compliance documents can you provide?

We can arrange OEKO-TEX Standard 100 documentation and third-party test reports for the relevant market, including REACH and CPSIA declarations when needed.
