THE CHANGE OF PACE MAXI DRESS
THE CHANGE OF PACE MAXI DRESS
The Change of Pace Maxi Dress offers two styles in one versatile piece for when you want options without any fuss!
Made from a beautiful, OEKO-TEX certified viscose/spandex blend, it has the perfect amount of stretch, drape, and softness for a feel-good fit that moves with you.
We’ve given this dress a cool twist with reversible design - flip it front-to-back to transform your look in just a few seconds. One side is a chic v-neckline with bold colour blocking in 3 colours to make a statement. Turn it around, for a classic crew neckline, colour blocked in a fun way with 2 colours and an empire waist seam.
Note: This piece is made to order and customisable. If you’ve got another fabric or colour in mind, send me a DM or email. I'd love to chat options with you!

FAQs
FAQs
Is Mad Nomad a plus sized brand?
We currently offer sizes ranging from 12-26 (NZ/AUS). While some may classify this range as “plus size”, we simply see them as sizes for women. I decided to start with this range because I believe these sizes are often overlooked in the market and deserve attention. In the future, I’d like Mad Nomad’s size range to expand to include sizes 6-30. However, we’re taking a slow approach to make sure we nail the perfect fit of our current range before doing so.
How do I know what my size is?
I recommend referring to our size guide (link located under the price of each product), which provides detailed measurements for each size. Please don’t rely on traditional “plus sizes”, as our range is quite different. Given the variation in sizing across brands, I encourage you to go by your own measurements. (You can download my measuring guide HERE.) If you need personalised assistance or have any questions, let's set up a 15 min Q&A session via phone or Zoom - BOOK NOW – I’m here to help you find the perfect fit!
Are your garments sustainably made?
Yes, sustainability lies at the heart of Mad Nomad. While it’s important to understand that every fabric choice carries an environmental impact, I’m dedicated to choosing materials and production methods that minimise our footprint on the planet. As someone relatively new to the sustainability side of the fashion industry, I’m constantly learning. I am committed to staying informed about new, innovative materials and processes to continually improve our practices.
Where are your clothes manufactured?
Our sewn garments are proudly made-to-order in Canterbury, NZ, by a total superstar named Renee, and for our merino knits we have been working with Textile Creations in Auckland, NZ. You can read more about our process and sustainability efforts here.

Where do you ship to?

There's never been a dress that I've had that's made me feel so beautiful but also so warm, soft and comfortable at the same time. I received so many complements and after having worn it a few times, can say that it wears super-well.
