Chilly Overtime

What Rose asks for

• Quality at least 70
• Professional at least 50
• Warm at least 50
• Cute no more than 20
• Romantic no more than 20

“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

• Professional: Black Wool Pinstripes (10 gold) is among the cheapest high scorers.
• Warm: Black Wool Pinstripes (10 gold) 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.
• Caps: keep Cute at 20 or less and Romantic at 20 or less. Check the score on the mannequin before you sew, since a single fabric or accessory can push it over.
• Quality 70: set the mannequin to Rose's exact measurements first (fit is 20 of the 100 points), cut on grain and sew cleanly. How to get 100% quality.
• Rose's own taste: Professional + Simple, wool, green, button accessories. Lean that way when the brief leaves you a choice. Her profile and measurements.

From players who finished it

• Cute and Romantic are ceilings (20 max), not targets. Pick fabrics with no Cute/Romantic tags; one player finished with 0 on both and Rose was happy. Steam discussion
• Player build that passed: Coat Dress Bodice, Double Ruffle and Bow Collar, Hecate Sleeve, Coat Dress Skirt in Chocolate Brown Corduroy. Steam discussion
• Player build that passed: Apron Bodice with no collar, long sleeves, Yoke Gathered Skirt in Brown Tweed and Brown Argyle. Steam discussion
• Common fail: going 10 over the Cute cap; Rose treats the dress as a joke and the friendship bar does not rise (story still continues). Steam discussion
