Shirts - Cord & Calico Adjustable I make shirts in many styles. This contoured, halter-style top is my most versatile. The adjustable straps allow them to fit a wide range of sizes. I initially made them for adults, but have since seen many use the smaller sizes as children's apron dresses (with something under/on bottom), with adorable results.
This style compliments smaller busts best, but I have seen cups of all sizes go into them. The spaghetti straps go over the shoulders, cross in back, & through the loops. Strap length can be completely controlled by the placement of the bow. The 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. Straps are completely adjustable, & controlled by where the bow is tied. 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 should equal the bust measurement of shirt + desired opening in back.

*Note-Bust lengths are given in 2 measurements (#>#), due to the taper of the halter style. The first measurement is the number of inches in the front of the bodice, & the second number will be the bust length in back, next to the loops.
