Shirts - Cord & Calico Standard I make shirts in many styles. This style was the beginning & inspiration for my scoop dresses. This style laces up in the back, with hemp cord (unless otherwise requested) running through coordinating, fabric loops. Straps are fixed, yet open back allows for a wide range of size adjustment.
This style compliments most figures, big and small. The bodice can be cinched tight, or worn loosely, depending on taste and comfort. Bottom portion flares out, to allow for hips, and fluid movement.
Occasionally I offer other styles, some fitted, some with full backs.
Custom orders are considered on an individual basis, upon inquiry.
All hand-made items are one-of-a-kind. Due to fabric selections, some items may be closely simulated, yet never duplicated.
Please see my main clothing page for more information on how my clothing is made.
Measuring to fit: This style is an adjustable fit, in bodice width, depending on how much back one would like to show. Bust sizes are of fabric only, & desired gap width should be added, to determine ideal size. Strap length should determine approximate size. Typical gap is 6"-8", though many choose to show more &/or less. To determine size, measure bust around fullest point. Subtract 2 inches. Total inches should equal bust measurement of shirt + desired opening in back.
