I am absolutely in love with my retro dress from Egle. The mushroom-brown shade is incredibly flattering on my olive skin, and the vintage inspired style feels both timeless and unique. It’s one of those pieces you know you’ll treasure for many years to come.
Every time I put it on, I feel a bit like Jo from Little Women ☺️ classic, confident, and wonderfully nostalgic. Truly a beautifully made dress that brings a touch of storybook charm to real life. 💗

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 3rd dress by Egle and I want 10 more! The fabric color & weight, design & fit are literally perfect. I feel beautiful, comfortable, flexible & elegant wearing this dress, which can be dressy, casual or professional depending on accessories. This dress is my favorite piece – my standard, reliable frock which enables me not to have to think about how I look. I feel pretty in it!

I love my alternative dress that Egle has suggested for me. There were several emails from her to ensure everything was done to my measurements & liking. The high quality workmanship is shown in every detail of this dress. Color was spot on.
The dress was nicely wrapped in a great linen bag with tissue paper & included a personal note. Like opening a gift for me.
I love this shop & you will too.
Highly recommend Egle & Knock Knock linen!!
Thank you so much

Egle was so helpful! The dress is beautifully made, the linen is high quality and the color is delicious. My daughter loves it and can wear it teaching, out to dinner, throughout warm weather and with a cardigan when it turns cool. An outstanding value and purchase!
