Description
The Bella + Canvas 6012 is the Women's Jersey Tank Dress, a 4.2 oz 100% cotton body in a smooth jersey knit cut to a slim sleeveless dress with a scoop neckline, the blank a decorator reaches for when a women's programme wants a soft cotton tank dress with a long flat front canvas rather than a tank or a tee. It is the tank dress for boutique and resale lines, festival and event merch, beach and resort programmes, and the bachelorette, bridal-party and group runs that buy a soft cotton dress by the dozen. The body is 4.2 oz of 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton spun to 32 singles, cut to a slim fit with a scoop neckline, a longer dress body and side seams; the Heather Athletic colour runs a 90/10 cotton/poly blend for the heather, while the solids are pure cotton. The size range runs S through 2XL, in four colours: White, Black, Navy and Heather Athletic.
The 6012 decorates as a cotton-dominant jersey with a long front body, so the full cotton method list is open and the long flat front gives a large canvas: keep art centred and high on the front body so it clears the scoop neckline, with room for a larger placement down the body. For DTG, the 100% cotton solids are a strong substrate where the smooth ring-spun face holds photoreal detail, with white printing at full vibrancy without pre-treatment and coloured solids taking a standard pre-treat; the Heather Athletic carries only 10% polyester, so it prints close to a pure-cotton result with a standard pre-treat. For DTF, the transfer bonds to the cotton face and holds clean edge definition across the whole range, the most colour-consistent route and a fast pick for a centred front placement. For screen printing with plastisol, the 100% cotton solids take a standard cotton deposit with no dye-migration worry, while the Heather Athletic 90/10 carries minimal polyester and needs only a light low-bleed guard. For water-based and discharge, the 100% cotton discharges and absorbs water-based ink well for a soft in-the-garment hand, ideal for a large soft-feel front print on the dress body. For vinyl, a light flexible HTV presses so it flexes with the jersey. Embroidery does not apply, since the lightweight 4.2 oz single jersey is too light and stretchy to embroider cleanly without puckering. Sublimation does not apply, since the cotton-dominant body is not a sublimation substrate.

The reorder note specific to this style: the solids are a pure 100% cotton jersey, so the print plan stays constant on White, Black and Navy, while the Heather Athletic runs a 90/10 blend that prints close to cotton with a standard pre-treat; default to DTG or DTF for a centred front placement and use the long flat body for a larger graphic clear of the scoop neckline. Bella + Canvas holds consistent sizing and jersey construction across runs, which keeps the slim fit stable reorder to reorder.
