Will this dress pass? Check it against the card

Once a dress is handed over it cannot be redone. Pick the card, copy in the numbers your sketchbook shows, and see which line would fail before you commit.

Fill in 2 more lines from your sketchbook.

The Dressmaker sketchbook: a request card on the left with a Requirements list, a dress sketch and tag scores on the right, fabrics down the side.
Where the numbers come from: the Requirements list on the card, and your dress's tag scores under the sketch.

The lines that catch people out

A number marked max is a ceiling, and going over it fails the card just as surely as falling short of a floor. 4 cards have a ceiling, and Chilly Overtime is the one players ask about most. Not Haughty is the odd one: its Quality 70 is a ceiling although the card does not say so, so a dress sewn to 100% fails it.

Rules such as Use only: Black or Avoid: White apply to the whole dress, and a percentage such as Velvet: at least 50% counts how much of the dress is that fabric. What raises each tag is on style tags and requirement rules, and every card with its thresholds is on the commission finder.
