Eta Dress

The Eta Dress is a regular-fit, shorter dress.
Measure from the top of your shoulder for length, and focus on bust and length for key fit points.

All garments are measured flat (not on body) and then doubled (except the length) to calculate the total circumference. To work out what size will suit you best, flat measure an item that fits you well and use this as a guide. Please contact us if you have any questions or need more information.

63% Carbon Zero TENCEL™ 37% ECOVERO™ Viscose

TENCEL™ Lyocell Carbon Zero* and LENZING™ ECOVERO™ Viscose are man-made cellulosic fibres (MMCF), derived from wood pulp. They create a silk-like feel, fluid drape and comfortable breathability.

TENCEL™ Lyocell fibres follow an environmentally responsible, closed loop production process, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibres using high resource efficiency and low environmental impact compared to conventional methods of production. The spinning process recycles process water and reuses the solvent at a recovery rate of more than 99%. 

LENZING™ ECOVERO™ fibres are recognised by CanopyStyle and EU Ecolabel certification as meeting high standards for environmental practice. This includes a low risk of sourcing raw materials from ancient or endangered forests, and the recycling of water and chemicals in the processing stages. According to Higg's life cycle impact assessment data, LENZING™ ECOVERO™ branded viscose fibres generate up to 50% lower emissions and water impact compared to generic viscose.

*We have not highlighted the carbon neutral attribute of this fibre as ELK has transitioned away from offsetting it's emissions and instead focuses on investing in projects that will deliver more  direct and positive environmental impact for the business. Our choice for this fibre is based on the attributes highlighted in the description and not on carbon neutrality.

This style was made in China through production agent Eastlink Sales, established in 2006 by Mrs Crystal Wu. Crystal has a great team based in Shanghai who work with us to manage our development and production.

They also act as the go between with the factory where our garments are made, Yao Fa Garment Factory.

Yao Fa Garment Factory undergo annual SMETA social compliance audits, which are conducted by a third party and provide transparency into worker wellbeing and wages. They are also measuring their environmental impact through tracking their electricity use. In 2023, the factory's investment in Renewable Energy Certificates meant that they operated on 100% renewable electricity.
