Fabric suggestions – Inspired by the functional attire of female factory workers – with a dash of the Twenties – the Factory Dress is a Merchant & Mills classic. It features a flattering cinched waist, a simple button-down front, and practical pockets. The silhouette is both feminine and utilitarian, offering a comfortable fit that doesn’t compromise on style. A versatile pattern that works equally well in summer linens or winter wools.
The Factory Dress slips over the head, features pockets and ready-rolled up sleeves. The Factory dress is ‘easy fit’ so use the bust measurement only for sizing.
