What it is for
A printed dress or skirt is cut and sewn from printed fabric, so the design covers it completely.
Panels are printed before sewing; the pattern can shift slightly at seams from one piece to the next.
Dye sublimation
Sublimation prints the design onto transfer paper with dye ink; heat then turns the dye into a gas that bonds into a polyester coating or polyester fibre.
Colour becomes part of the surface rather than a layer on top, so it is vivid and does not crack or peel. It cannot print white: white in a design shows as the colour of the item itself, which is why sublimated items are white or pale.
There is no texture at all — on fabric you cannot feel the print, and on a mug it is under a smooth coating.
Designs that suit it
Patterns and textures rather than a single centred picture: the garment curves, gathers and moves.
The print area is on the front: 5,039 × 5,130 pixels, about 16.8 × 17.1 in at 300 dpi — a roughly square area. The studio generates the design at that size, so it is printed from a full-resolution file rather than an enlarged preview.
Full-colour photographs, paintings and edge-to-edge patterns. Less suited: designs that rely on white ink, and important detail right at seams, handles or edges where the transfer wraps.

Where it is printed, and when it arrives
It is printed to order in Putian City, Fujian, China, then shipped: 7–15 business days to Canada ($14.10 CAD for the first item) and 7–15 business days to the US ($16.15 CAD). Each window counts from the day the order is placed and includes printing.
Because it is printed outside North America, import duties or taxes may apply on arrival.
To arrive by Christmas 2026 with standard shipping, order by December 4 for Canada and December 4 for the US — that is the Women's Casual Dress's own longest window counted back from December 25.
How it compares with our other dresses and skirts
- Of the 12 dresses and skirts in the catalogue, none costs less than this one and 11 cost more.
- Its longest delivery time to Canada, 15 business days, is the same as the family's median of 15; 1 other dress arrives sooner.
- 8 of the 12 are printed in North America; this one is printed in China.
Looking after it
- Wash cold, inside out.
- Tumble dry low.
- No bleach; the colour is in the fibre, so it will not crack.
Before you order
How long does the Women's Casual Dress take to arrive?
To Canada, 7–15 business days, with first-item shipping at $14.10 CAD; to the US, 7–15 business days ($16.15 CAD). It is printed to order in Putian City, Fujian, China, and the window counts from the day you order, printing included.
Can I put a photo on the Women's Casual Dress?
Yes. Sublimation reproduces photographs in full colour with no texture. White areas print as the item's own colour, so a photo with a white background blends into it. The print file is 5039 × 5130 pixels on the front, so a photo should be at least that size to print sharply.
What sizes does the Women's Casual Dress come in?
9 sizes: 2XS, XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL. The size guide has measurements for each.
When should I order the Women's Casual Dress for Christmas?
With standard shipping, by December 4 to Canada and December 4 to the US. Those dates count this product's longest delivery window back from December 25 in business days. Express shipping at checkout, where it is offered, shortens the window.
How do I look after the Women's Casual Dress?
It is sublimation-printed, and that sets the care. Wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low. No bleach; the colour is in the fibre, so it will not crack.
