Delicioso is a warm caramel. The Veria's embroidery is worked tone on tone in it, so the pattern shows as texture across the cloth.

Second Female worked the embroidery into a soft, light, semi-sheer fabric. The pattern belongs to the cloth. Nothing has been sewn on top. The neck is round and nothing else on the blouse competes.

Worn alone it shows a little skin through. Over a camisole or under a knit, the embroidery has a ground to sit against.

Second Female is cut in Copenhagen to European sizing. Australian sizes are the same as UK sizes, so the UK column is your Australian size: a Second Female M is a UK and AU 10, an EU 38. The measurements below are the house's own, in centimetres, taken from the body rather than the garment.

Choosing between two sizes

Most Second Female styles are true to size. Fitted styles and structured fabrics are the exception, and there the house recommends the larger size. Relaxed shapes and knits with give can take the smaller one. Blazers and jackets want a little room across the shoulders and bust. Any style that runs differently is noted in its Fit line.

How to measure

Bust: around the fullest part, tape level across the back.
Waist: around the narrowest part, usually just above the navel.
Hip: around the fullest part, feet together.
Inseam: from the top of the inside leg down to the ankle.

Caring for Second Female

Wool, alpaca and mohair knits: hand wash, or a gentle wool cycle with wool detergent. Dry flat. Store folded, never on a hanger.

Leather: wipe with a damp cloth. Condition regularly so it does not dry out. Keep it away from heat and direct sun.

Cotton: wash cold and gently. Air dry to keep the shape and avoid shrinkage.

Denim: wash sparingly and inside out to protect the colour. Air dry.

For every other fabric, follow the care label sewn into the piece.
