Dressmaker commissions: check requirements, tags and fabric prices

This silent 1:34 Mac tutorial follows Rose’s actual brief, two labelled component-tag stills from our earlier sketch test, linen store details and quantity-handle drags. Recorded October 26, 2026, Build 447.804bb8a. No purchase, delivery or payment is shown.

Rose’s Librarian Workwear asks for Quality 60 and Professional 40 in our test. Its reward displays 200. Those are the targets and offered reward of this commission, not universal requirements or a payment we received in this video.

The current unfinished dress shows Quality 5/60 and Professional 15/40 at the top right. Earlier component-tag stills show an earlier sketch stage at 0/60 and 0/40. Keep the requirement card, sketch preview and actual dress result separate.

Princess Bodice showed Professional 20 in our Mac test; Kimono Bodice showed Professional −5. The video presents the actual captured tag screens as labelled stills, rather than simulating hover actions.

Selecting Kimono Bodice also changed Cap Sleeve to No Sleeves. That comparison changes more than one component, so it does not establish an exact scoring formula. The component controls were locked after we drafted the current test dress.

1. Click an editable component name to open its choices.
2. Hover over an option and read the named style values.
3. After choosing a component, recheck the other rows before drafting.

Cool Grey Linen showed Linen, Grey, Casual 50, Cool 50, Daywear 50, Simple 50, Professional 25 and Workwear 50. A useful tag is a planning clue; its appearance on a bolt does not prove the finished dress will pass.

In the recorded test, dragging the quantity handle changed 2 metres for 40 to 4 metres for 80, then back to 2 for 40. We did not press Buy. Coins stayed at 386 and the displayed owned linen stayed at 3.00 metres. These are the observed price choices for this material and build, not a profit formula.

1. At the shop, select the fabric shelves to open International Emporium.
2. Select the material to read its exact name, colour and style tags. In this example, selecting our existing Cool Grey Linen entry opened its store details.
3. Set the required length with the quantity handle and read the displayed Buy total before committing.

This Mac example teaches checks before spending. It does not provide a guaranteed recipe, complete fabric database, final-score formula or delivered-dress result. We did not encounter maximum wording in Rose’s brief; the attributed guidance about maximums below remains separate.

Watch cutting, grain quality and panel collection

Check sewing pins and a missing Finish Dress button

Keep the requested qualities and budget beside your design choices. The official sketchbook screenshot below shows an example with Quality 70, Flowers 60, Cute 30 and Romantic 45. Those numbers belong to this pictured brief; they are not requirements for every customer or proof that the pictured sketch passes.

Seerolz’s launch guide explains that a requirement marked max is an upper limit. It also distinguishes the solid green estimate from the striped range, which varies with fabric usage. Treat that as player-reported UI guidance; check the actual wording in your build.

Before Build 443, colour and fabric type were scored as a raw share of each panel’s area against all the fabric in the dress. Build 443 boosts panels on small components such as the collar or sleeves, so a contrasting collar now moves those requirements more than its size suggests. The developer says style tags already worked this way.

Older dresses may now show slightly different scores. If a colour or fabric requirement reads differently from your notes, compare it on Build 443 before rebuilding. The notes give no exact multiplier, so Kingy does not publish one.

In the shop screenshot below, pink silk has useful Formal and Simple tags, but the brief also says to use only black. Matching two style tags would not satisfy that color instruction. This is why checking the whole brief matters more than picking a fabric with one attractive score.
