Inside Leg Measurements:
Owing to customer demand we have introduced a size 8 Long dress, skirt and trouser length. Please see individual styles for inside leg measurements.
Pigment and Indigo Dyed Garments:
To give some of our casual clothes the 'lived-in look', we often use pigment or indigo dyes. These are less fixed than other dyes and the pigment can remain on the surface of the material. We advise you to wash these items separately before you give them their first outing, or the dye may transfer to other fabrics. These items will gradually fade with washing.
