Goal

Commission checklist for Adora

  1. Plan in the sketchbook

    Design and colour the dress before buying anything: pin fabric swatches and appliqué ideas so the whole order is decided on paper first.

  2. Choose the fabrics

    Editorial suggestion (subjective, based on real-world character): silk or velvet for grand occasions, wool for warmth, cotton or linen for everyday wear. The game publishes no per-fabric stats.

  3. Cut with intent

    Arrange the pattern pieces and decide grain or bias per panel — the cut shows in the finished garment, and each panel may use a different fabric.

  4. Preview on the mannequin

    Check the assembled pattern on the mannequin before sewing. Fix the layout here, where it is still free.

  5. Sew at the machine

    Feed the fabric through the sewing machine and assemble the dress panel by panel.

  6. Decorate freely

    Buttons, bows, appliqué and lace trims go exactly where you place them. Match the customer’s requested style tags before adding personal flair.

  7. Deliver and inspect

    Delivery pays reputation and coin. Dresses carry a measurable quality percentage — 100% quality earns the achievement 99 Problems But A Stitch Aint One.

Goal: satisfy. Meet the requested style tags, aim for high quality, and deliver — reputation and coin are the confirmed rewards.

This planner runs on static rules derived from the official description. Fabric suggestions are editorial and subjective; no in-game values exist to compute with.

What this calculator actually computes

Dressmaker publishes no prices, stats or formulas, so there is nothing numeric to calculate honestly. What this tool does instead is sequence: it maps the official commission loop — sketchbook, fabric, cutting, mannequin, sewing, decorating, delivery — onto the customer and goal you pick, and flags every editorial suggestion as subjective. When official numbers exist, this page will carry them.

Where these facts come from

This site is built from two official sources: the Steam store listing and Steam’s global achievement statistics. Everything they state is quoted or paraphrased with the source cited; anything neither source states — fabric stats, customer personalities, hidden achievement conditions — is marked Unconfirmed rather than filled in.

  • Official Dressmaker on Steam (app 4019220) — The official store listing. Source of the release date (September 21, 2026), the $14.99 price, Windows/Mac support, language support (English, Simplified Chinese and Japanese with full audio), the single-player/casual-simulation classification, the named fabrics (cotton, linen, wool, silk, velvet), the decoration types (buttons, bows, appliqué, lace trims), the sketchbook, mannequin, grain/bias cutting, window-display and "satisfy (or sabotage!)" mechanics, and the official system requirements.
  • Official Dressmaker — Steam global achievement statistics — Steam’s official global achievement stats for app 4019220, read September 2026. Source of the full 32-achievement list, each achievement’s official description (where one is published — hidden achievements show none) and the global unlock percentages quoted across this site.
Questions

Calculator questions

Is the Dressmaker commission calculator accurate?

Its steps come verbatim from the official game description, so the sequence is accurate. Fabric recommendations are editorial suggestions based on real-world fabric character — the game publishes no per-fabric stats to compute with.

Which customers can I plan for?

All ten named customers: Adora, Alice, Dorothy, Edith, Fiona, Marie, Priya, Prudence, Rose and Vivian. Each has a major-commissions storyline confirmed by its achievement.

What does the sabotage goal do?

The official store description says you can "satisfy (or sabotage!)" townsfolk but gives no mechanics, so the sabotage path here is labelled Unconfirmed and offers the same confirmed loop with the honest caveat.

Does the calculator need an internet connection?

No. It is plain HTML and JavaScript running in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere.
