Style guide

Princess, prom, royal and everyday dress styles

Clients describe what they want with style tags. Parts, fabrics and decorations each add tags; a dress matches when the required tags are present and the disliked ones are not.

Style tags

Ten tags describe every garment in the game.

  • Professional: linen, wool suiting, pencil skirt, boxy bodice.
  • Glamorous: silk charmeuse, circle skirt, appliqué.
  • Romantic: floral lawn, lace trim, bows, bishop sleeves.
  • Gothic: black velvet, laced bodice, moon appliqué.
  • Playful: cotton gingham, shell buttons, cap sleeves, A-line skirt.
  • Warm and rustic: flannel plaid, denim, wooden buttons.
  • Minimal, vintage and sporty round out the set.

Princess and royal gowns

A fitted bodice with a circle skirt in silk reads glamorous and romantic. Add bows and lace trim for the princess look, or a laced bodice in velvet with star appliqué for a royal evening gown.

Prom dresses

Party briefs such as a stage night ask for glamorous tags; add playful parts for a prom look. An A-line skirt in silk with cap sleeves and a few shell buttons reads glamorous and playful without tipping into formal.

Everyday and work dresses

Interview and market-day briefs want professional or warm tags. Linen or wool suiting, a pencil or A-line skirt and a boxy bodice keep the dress calm and well cut.
