Dressed Down
Dorothy is distressed — I'm going to make her a nice summer dress to lift her spirits.

How about a nice new summer dress? Something elegant, featuring your favourite eclectic fabrics. You can offer me 350 for the job.
Suggested fabrics
Gold chips are what this commission asks for. Red chips are what it avoids. The fabrics whose own values come closest to the asked tags are at the top. Ties go to the cheaper fabric. Each fabric here is fine on its own for this commission's colour, type and "at most" lines. Chip values are only the fabric's share, and patterns and accessories add their own. Only fabrics in the shop by Rank 11 are listed here. You reach that rank by passing every commission before this one.

Rewards
| Reward | Every line met |
|---|---|
| Gold | 350 |
| Friendship with Dorothy | +1 |
| Prestige | +1 × 6 ÷ (6 + n) |
This commission can't end as a failure. A failed dress just reopens it, so it never gives the failure reward (+0.25 friendship, +0.25 prestige and the budget).
n is the number of dresses you have already finished. Each one makes the prestige gain a little smaller. Ranks
If this dress fails
If the dress for Dressed Down fails, the debrief has only one answer for you: "No, this isn’t quite right, is it? Let me take another look at it." That answer reopens the commission, so you can work on the dress again, as many times as it takes. The commission gives no gold, friendship or prestige until you deliver a dress that succeeds.
