Design & Designer

The SWING slip-on dress is a practical everyday design with side pockets. It has a wide, hand-pleated hem that’s easy to adjust to different lengths – make it mini, midi, or maxi, according to your personal preference. If you’re looking for a convenient, loose- cut, and easy-to-make garment, this dress is perfect for you.

For the TAUKO Magazine co-founder, Kaisa Rissanen, the sound of waves will always be the sound of summer. Kaisa spent her childhood holidays at her family’s cottage in central Finland, beside a small, beauti- ful lake. Her SWING dress design is inspired by long summer days playing by the water with her best friend, wearing pleated dresses on top of swimsuits.

Fabric information

Fit and size:

Choose your size based on your bust circumference. Add a recommended positive ease of 2.6–4.7″/7–12 cm. Pick the size that is the best match for your bust. Note: As this is a slip-on design, take care that your bust measurement doesn’t exceed the waist measurement of the finished dress.

Erica Fernandez is wearing checkered SWING in size 6. She is 64″/163 cm tall. Bayi Amoussou is wearing light blue SWiNG in size 3. She is 65″/164 cm tall.

Fabric recommendations:

Choose a light to medium weight fabric like linen, cotton, or denim. Choosing a fabric with more stability will bring structure and volume to the garment. The checkered sample dress is made from “Carolina” (100% linen, 5.9 oz/200 gsm) by Merchant & Mills. The blue sample is made from a vintage cotton/ polyester blend (4 oz/140 gsm) that used to be a bed linen.
