    I absolutely LOVE my two new dresses – they are so beautiful and the linen is extremely soft; it wraps around the body like a hug. Two new best friends in my wardrobe, ready for many years of adventures! Thank you so much Egle, Gintaras, Grazina and Jurgita for your absolutely beautiful clothing – never had the black and white one off since it arrived yesterday and have never stopped smiling!

    This is my fourth Work Dress, all in different colors. They fit beautifully, and very well made and the linen is comfortable in all seasons. I also love that I can hang the dress and spritz it with water and watch the wrinkles fall out.

    I asked for a tie belt on this and the dress even came with belt loops as well as the belt. Love the attention to detail. Thanks so much Egle, it’s perfect!

  13. etsy buyer

    Happy Birthday to me! I LOVE it! It's gorgeous, fabric is soft but has structure, fits perfectly (not too baggy), plenty of room under the arms while still being somewhat tailored, even smells earthy wonderful.

  14. etsy buyer

    This is by far the most flattering dress for my pear figure. I love how I can request for it to be longer, so it covers my knees. I have purchased more than ten of these over the years and they never disappoint, this is my favourite dress of all times.

  15. etsy buyer

    I have several items from Egle's store and love every one! They are beautifully made with quality materials. She even once kindly steered me away from a jacket that would have been unflattering, to one that works better for my body and wardrobe. Her pieces are timeless and definitely worth the investment.

  16. etsy buyer

    Beautiful work as ever–I hope to be back again and again!

  17. etsy buyer
