Seller Notes: New and unworn

Shipping Notes: This Tabard will be shipped by the seller, who is US based. Therefore it will attract an automatic postage charge of £27 (the standard int'l shipping rate) which will compensate the seller for the charges they occur. The seller is not registered for sales tax so there is no tax to reclaim. UK customers will not pay any import tax or duties. Other countries: depending on your location you may be charged import tax and duties by the customs office in your country of residence. Neither the seller nor The Slow Wardrobe has any control over this.

The Tabard is an A-line over-piece to wear over pretty much any outfit. Like the Smock, the Tabard has deep armholes, allowing you to wear it over a wide range of tops. It is loose and relaxed, which makes it comfortable, and it is practical with its large pockets. You will love what you see when you catch your reflection in a mirror or window, not to mention the seemingly never-ending stream of compliments you get wearing a Layercake Tabard (have a read of the reviews if you need convincing).

Size 3 Petite: available both in the Smock as well as the Tabard shape for size 3's of 5'4" or less.

Please note that the models in the photos are wearing a Mini-Tabard over the top of the Tabard.

Because the linen used for Layercake over-pieces is very hard-wearing and pre-washed, it is a great piece of work-wear that will get softer with wear and age and last you for years. We dare you to try one; you will not regret it! Not sure about this shape? Have a look at the Smock

The Slow Wardrobe sizes
We follow our own sizing system, recognising that the traditional system of "ladies dress-sizes" does not account for body shape and height. See how The Slow Wardrobe sizes relate to body measurements HERE.

Smock/Tabard/Mini Tabard/Tail Smock/Felted Wool Jacket
These garments are designed to fit a very wide range of sizes and heights, from a UK size 10 to 28. Check these garment measurements to give you an idea of their dimensions.

Apron:
The Apron sizing is close to our Smocks and Tabards (0, 1, 2 and 3) so if you know your Smock/Tabard size then choose the corresponding Apron size. However, the Apron shape is more open around the bust, so there is some more flexibility if you prefer to wear it more or less fitted.
 NOTE: length measurements are taken from the top of the shoulder straight down to the bottom hem.
