What Adora asks for

  • Quality at least 80
  • Eveningwear at least 60
  • Romantic at least 60
  • Formal at least 40

“No more than” is a cap: go over it and the dress fails that line, even if everything else is perfect.

How to pass it

  • Eveningwear: French Floral Black Lace (30 gold) or Absynthe Lace are among the cheapest high scorers.
  • Romantic: Cloud White Cotton (10 gold) is among the cheapest high scorers.
  • Formal: Absynthe Lace is among the cheapest high scorers.
  • Where to put it: the skirt and bodice carry 75% of a dress's tag score (40% and 35%), so use the fabric that scores the tag there. How tag scores work.
  • Quality 80: set the mannequin to Adora's exact measurements first (fit is 20 of the 100 points), cut on grain and sew cleanly. How to get 100% quality.
  • Adora's own taste: Cute + Romantic, silk, purple, bow accessories. Lean that way when the brief leaves you a choice. Her profile and measurements.

From players who finished it

  • If the submit button never appears with all requirements met, look for an unfinished stitch or an uncut pattern piece ("return all patterns" on the cutting table). Steam discussion
