The Recycling Centre Patchwork Bow Midi Dress

Even a world as magical as The Octopus Garden needs to handle its waste - which is why we are so excited to introduce you to The Recycling Centre! May no whimsical scrap go to waste; may no deadstock t-shirt go unworn, and may nothing be sent to landfill. This is the collection made from all other collections, ensuring everything always gets used and trash always be made into treasure. Because after all, when you throw something away, where is 'away'?

This is the Joseph's Technicolour Dream Coat of The Octopus Garden! Using the 100% cotton remnants from our past collections, we have created the most joy-filled, maximalist dress ever! It has a super feminine shape, puffed shoulders and elasticated cuffs, a mid length and a pussy bow at the neck, and fastens with a zip at the back.

Everything is handmade in Chester by our fantastic seamstress Helen, using all pre existing fabrics - either deadstock or end of rolls from our collections - therefore the prints on dress you receive may not be in this exact placement. If you would like pictures of a particular size then just let us know! These are all in stock and available to ship right away.
