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 80 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

Work out my Quality scoreThe dress is right, the finish is not

How Quality is judged
Questions about this commission
Does Painted Dream 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 Elaborate ≥ 25, Formal ≥ 75, Romantic ≥ 50. 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 80. 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 sets no fabric rule, so any cloth is allowed. Colour, style weight and cost are the only things to weigh up.
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.
Which unlocks does this dress need?
The recommended dress leans on: Works from Prestige 14, Works from Prestige 3, Requires Prudence Relationship 2, Requires Adora Relationship 2, Requires Vivian Relationship 2. Anything else on the list is available from the start.
What comes after this commission?
The next commission for this customer is Secret Gallery Visit. Completing this one may raise their relationship level, which is what unlocks the patterns you will want for it.
