Oh the places you'll go. The journey of the dress
Published Tue Jan 23 2024

Ever wondered what goes down after you hit that "buy" button on your fave dress from an overseas designer? Buckle up as we take you on a wild ride through the global process that turns a click into couture!

So, you've sealed the deal on your dream dress via your go-to online shop (ahem, THE LNK - obvs!).


Your order jets off through cyberspace, making a beeline straight to the designer's workshop situated in a far-off locale. Then, skilled hands, high-grade fabrics, and killer creativity come together to turn your chosen design into a masterpiece.

Small-scale designers often partner with local artisans, whether it's for hand embroidery, hardware, weaving, or other specialized techniques. These collaborations not only preserve traditional craftsmanship but also support local communities and their rich heritage.



This ain't your regular assembly line hustle either. It's a full-blown marathon where patterns are drafted/redrafted, fabrics are cut, and details are handcrafted to create the fashion piece you've been eyeing. This dress is getting the white glove treatment, customized with love and attention to become the head-turner you envisioned.

Once the frock and ready to rock, it's time for the dress to start its global vacay. From the designer's spot, it jets off, making pit stops at shipping hubs, crossing oceans and continents like a fashion jet-setter, all prepped to land in your home turf.


Small designers often face unique challenges in managing the logistical aspects - that's where THE LNK comes in. Yet their commitment to delivering quality and excellence persists throughout this process.


So after clearing some fashion hurdles at customs (yep, even dresses need a passport), it's all set for the final runway – your doorstep!


You unbox it like a pro, and there it is – your dress, fresh off its worldwide tour, ready to make your wardrobe pop!

No more just a click-to-buy scenario; it's a whole journey. This dress isn't just fabric and threads; it's a global fusion of creativity, craftsmanship, and a touch of your own fashion story.


So, next time you click, remember you're not just ordering a dress, you're kick-starting a fabulous adventure that connects you to a world of design and style.Cheers to supporting small businesses from around the world, wherever you are 🌎🕊️✌️
