Todays Friday Frock Love is Get Cutie.
Get Cutie are a brand that have been on my radar, but sadly not in my wardrobe for a couple of years now. They are frequently in the small ads in the back of glossy magazines and independent boutique in Norwich SoHo Hip often has them in the window to tease me with.
I really love their sweatshop free, individually made ethos and their kooky fabrics as well as the fact that their clothes are available in a range of cup sizes.
On their website each individual item is given detailed sizing details, which is a relief for those of us the high street considers oddly proportioned. And, although I find (as is usual *sigh*) that to buy one of their pencil dresses to fit my hips would mean it being a full 4″ too big on the waist, they do offer a made to measure service. This means that come the day I have £100 to spend on dresses instead of, ohh, a tenner, I needn’t count that style out.
Each style is available in a range of fabrics. So in my fantasy wardrobe are:
Pencil Dress in Red Fan Birds Fabric £99.50
Half Sleeve Dress in Dancing Cranes Fabric £105
P.S. Really not loving the placement of the Virgin Mary in this fabric…..
Long Cap Sleeve Dress in Russian Dolls Black Fabric £99.50
Then, once I have these, I shall get them all again in some more of their gorgeous fabrics. They have skull prints, for the more gothic inclined of you and cute puppies and kittens for the more, er, well, I’m sure some of you can pull them off, I can’t.
Every time I go back through their swatches I find another fabric I love, kitschy cute or elegantly simple, I (nearly) love them all.
The last dress with the Russian dolls? LOVE! Love love love it. These are fabulous!
Isn’t it gorgeous. I miss having money (but not my job!)
Dancing Cranes!

Ferns and Green Lady Yang are beautiful fabrics on their site. Love the half sleeve dress design.
I liked the ferns too.
I heart Get Cutie very much too!
Being from Brighton, I have been spoilt by them for a fair few years now, glad to see their wares are spreading far and wide for all the fabulous ladies out there!! 🙂
I must go visit next time I’m in Brighton!
So glad you pointed this brand out. I’ve never heard of them but I’m ALWAYS glad to hear of clothing with bra sizes!

Oh my gosh, the Russian Dolls! Just the right mix of adorable and strange. I haven’t checked if they ship the States yet because I’m afraid I’ll buy something I can’t afford if they do.

Ohhh! I have seen these in the cloth! The russian dolls one is DIVINE!! I am saving my pennies HARD for that one!
Have to say I like the bird red fan print. Just like red!
I love them all but the half-sleeve dress is my favourite. I think the cut is super-flattering for most. The dresses are expensive but it’s money well spent if you can get them made-to-measure.
Thanks for posting about this site. They were completely new to me. 🙂
I love the prints on these fabrics; especially the first one with the red floral. Very sexy and exotic.
