FAQs
What occasions is this dress best suited for?
This dress is ideal for formal and semi-formal events such as weddings, garden parties, race days, and evening soirees.
How should I style this dress?
Style with minimal jewellery to let the embroidery stand out. Pair with strappy heels for formal occasions. A lightweight pashmina can be added for cooler evenings.
