Quality is scored while you sew
A quality threshold is not something a recipe can prove. The dress below settles every design requirement; this number is decided by your hands on the machine.
Need 75 or more
What decides the final number
- Grain — cutting the fabric on the correct line
- Fit — how closely the garment follows the body
- Sewing accuracy — how cleanly the seams are run

Fabric and colour composition
This brief measures part of the dress by area, so here is what the recommended dress is actually made of.

Shares are the recipe's own measured fabric areas. A fabric that carries two colours counts towards both, so the rows are areas rather than a colour-by-colour percentage.

Set my progressWhy isn't my dress passing?
The reasons this particular brief turns a dress down, written for the requirements it actually contains.
Simple is still too low
Your dress needs Simple 40. Look at the pattern and the fabric first: those two carry most of a style score, and accessories add on top of them.
Simple

Your dress needs Playful 35. Look at the pattern and the fabric first: those two carry most of a style score, and accessories add on top of them.
Playful
See the best Playful itemsCotton is not registering
The rule counts area. You need 60 of the dress cut from Cotton, so a trim or a lining will not be enough on its own.
Cotton
Browse commissions asking for CottonQuality is below 75
Quality is not decided by what you chose, but by how the dress was made. Check the grain line, the fit and how cleanly the seams were sewn.
Quality
Work out my Quality scoreThe dress is right, the finish is not
A dress can match every design requirement and still miss the quality threshold. Re-cut it with an eye on grain and fit before changing the recipe.

Prioritise Simple
Patterns and fabrics carry the most Simple weight, so settle those two before adding accessories for the last few points towards 40.

Patterns and fabrics carry the most Playful weight, so settle those two before adding accessories for the last few points towards 35.
See the best Playful itemsChoose the cloth first
You need 60 of the dress in Cotton. Decide that before the pattern, because swapping fabric later usually means re-cutting every piece.
Browse commissions asking for CottonLeave room for the finish
This brief needs Quality 75. A dress that only just clears the design requirements leaves you no slack on the machine, so aim a little higher on style.
How Quality is judgedStay under the budget
The customer sets a budget of 1,000. Substituting cheaper cloth of the same colour and fabric type is usually the easiest place to save.

Questions about this commission
Does Sporting Chance have only one solution?
No. The game data yields 6 validated dresses for this brief. This page publishes the recommended one and the reason it passes; the solver is where you walk through the others.
What does the brief actually require?
This one scores Simple ≥ 40, Playful ≥ 35. Fabric, colour, accessory and craft rules, where present, are listed on the brief card at the top of the page.
What Quality do I need?
The brief asks for Quality 75. That number comes from how the dress is cut and sewn, not from the recipe, so no outfit can guarantee it for you.
Can I use another fabric?
This brief does have a fabric rule: Cotton ≥ 60%. Any cloth of the right kind can work as long as the measured areas still satisfy it.
Why doesn't my dress pass?
Work through the requirements one by one: a dress fails on the first rule it misses. Style and composition rules are decided by what you chose, Quality by how you sewed it, so the fix is different for each.
