Marie's 3rd story commission
Spring Fete
Marie needs a romantic dress for the Spring Fete!
This commission only pays its budget for a dress that succeeds. What happens if it fails
Requirements
Pass this commission and a Spilt Tea newspaper report waits for you at the front desk (+3 prestige).
Why can't I finish?
The Finish Dress button appears once every pattern piece is on the mannequin and every seam is sewn. Can't finish a commission?
Known issues (0.7.0)A dress that meets every line
You can make this dress with what you have when the commission arrives. Its fabrics and accessories are in the shop from the start, and its patterns are yours by then. Passing every commission before this one gets you to Rank 10.

Marie
Could I ask for an elaborate gown? Eveningwear, of course, and I would like for this dress to be, you know…romantic. I’m envisioning loose, draping silks? I can offer you 500 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 10 are listed here. You reach that rank by passing every commission before this one.

Rewards
| Reward | Every line met |
|---|---|
| Gold | 500 |
| Friendship with Marie | +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 Spring Fete fails, the debrief has only one answer for you: "No, of course not." 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.
