Blue Sky Velma dress, linen-bamboo Lemonade print

Over 20 years ago, Marilyn Cobban started Blue Sky Clothing out of the back of a VW van in small-town Balfour BC. Her vision was to help women of all sizes and body types find beautiful styles in natural, breathable fabrics. Since then, Blue Sky has established nine locations in BC and a growing wholesale business. The company’s values are to be kind to the people who make the clothes, kind to the environment, and kind to all body types. As such this fair-trade company specializes in natural fibers, including bamboo, cotton, wool, cashmere, and modal in a range of sizes to fit and flatter most bodies.

The Velma is a shift dress with a slight A-line shape, and of course pockets! A scoop neckline and wide shoulder straps ensure a smooth canvas for layering or accessorizing. Pockets are inset at the hip, and roomy enough for your essentials. The Velma cascades down the body to the knee, ending in a slight flare.
