"Dobson's designs are flirtatious, but with a sophisticated, ladylike approach. Sensuality and naughtiness, in the form of tulle and ruffles, peak out from the bust and hemlines of slim, fitted silhouettes that flair just enough to be playful." Papierdoll Magazine "It's time to reintroduce my favorite denim skirt into spring rotation. Made by Alice Dobson of Sofada boutique, the skirts feature her signature cutout hem and are crafted from perfectly thrashed 501s that she finds at thrift stores."
