Pick your fabric: Picnic Check
Description

Rita is based on one of my favourite vintage dresses that I live in all summer. It's super-adjustable, flattering on all sizes due to the many ways in which you can tie it around the waist and bust. It looks great with a t-shirt underneath or without with its flattering low back. 

Rita has features:
•4.5 Meter long ties so you can tie it in multiple ways
•Circle skirt with or without frilled hem.
•Low back
•Great for changing body shapes and pregnancy

Add Detachable sleeves - These sleeve you can remove by threading them onto the straps, they are elasticated around the armpit and at the cuff.
Size and fit

We’re obsessed with helping you find the perfect fitting clothes. That’s why our team is always here to help you find the best size and fit. We use your measurements to recommend a size and any alterations for you.

Use the size chart to find your size and get in touch if you need more help.

Garment Care

Every garment is made by hand in East Sussex. We take time to make your FRL piece with techniques and details that we hope make it last for years to come.

To get the most out of me:

• Hand wash/delicate cycle at 30

• Do not tumble dry

• Don't dry clean

• Iron on low

Reviews

First dress to really make me happy in years

"Something about the quality, beautiful fabric, the classic cut that will always look great, the versatility for a naturally fluctuating body size, about the love and knowledge of the craft that the maker puts into it - and the knowledge that you're truly buying from someone who shares your values - this was the first time in years (probably since childhood) that I couldn't stop talking about how happy I am with a dress I bought for a few days. I am grateful for the adjustments made to fit me (as I'm quite short). I would recommend Faith Rowan Leaves to everyone, thank you!"

Versatile!

"This was my first piece & I love how this style allows for adjusting so it always fits perfect. I got this in the ditsy floral cotton & the fabric has been perfect for those hot summers. Learning how to measure myself was a fun aspect of the ordering process & it just fits so beautifully. I recommend the rita for anyone looking for some versatile wear that's also size adjustable"

Love the Rita dress

"The Rita dress in blue tencel linen is amazing. The fabric is so soft and drapes beautifully. The design of the Rita dress is so very elegant, the cross straps at the back is such a stunning feature, I’d love to collect to the Rita dress in all fabrics from the shop!"

— Ivy W. (5/5)

Summer dress of dreams

"This dress is stunning! Faith and the team took extra measurements from me to make sure the fit was perfect, and it really is. The fabric (cornflower linen) is amazing quality too, no slip needed for me. Will be living in this all summer long! 🩵"

Gorgeous fabric

"Ever since I received my custom Rita dress in Picnic Check I have been finding any excuse to put it on, even in terrible weather! It has a very clever design with the ties that allows the Rita to fit your body like a glove, and I love the ability to wear it on its own or with sleeves for a different look. I was in between sizes so I sent in measurements for a custom size. It is beautifully sewn and fits my body perfectly. The Picnic Check is an absolutely gorgeous fabric that I cannot get enough of. All the colours come alive when it’s under the sun and it is enthralling. Pictures do not do it justice! I have just placed another order to have a few more pieces in the check so I have even more occasions to wear it over the summer ☀️"
