The Catherine dress is designed with the breeziness of a sleeveless cut, yet with a flattering armhole design that comfortably covers the armpits. Its elegant neckline, beautiful gathering at waist and fit-and-flare silhouette, falling just below the knees, create a graceful and timeless look. Pockets are hidden in the side seams.
SIZING
- Jill wears M: Height 5’5” - Bust 37” - Waist 32” - Hip 41.5”
- Catherine wears XL: Height 5’6” - Bust 44” - Waist 38” - Hip 43”
- Length of dress is about 44", with the back slightly longer.
- If you have a shorter torso, we recommend you size down so the waist is more fitted to stay up. The waistband is in a lower placement than our usual dresses, so it will flatter more to have the waist seam be firmer and raise up for best proportions.
- Relaxed in the chest and hip, fitted around the waist.

Mira's Story My mother gave birth to three daughters, but most of Nepal thinks girls have little or no worth. My father abandoned us and married another woman for a chance to conceive a son. My sisters and mom were neglected, even by our maternal family. Things got worse when Mom was nearly murdered by my uncle. Her wound from the stabbing made her body too weak to work hard. We depended on others to give us a place to live, but we were a burden to them. I didn’t go to school for many years. Instead, I worked a job to help us survive. Some of my friends wanted to go to India. They told me to go with them to have a better life, and I was very hopeful of that. When I crossed the border, I then realized that going to India was a trap for sex trafficking. I then entered job training for skills to sew garments. Then I was hired to work as a seamstress. I am very thankful for the chance to study and have a good job.
