FAQs

Is the fabric see-through?

The dress is made of quality cotton, but like many lightweight summer garments, it is recommended to wear skin-toned undergarments.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is not recommended. Tumble drying may lead to shrinkage and damage the delicate fabric; air drying is the best practice.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

The pockets are designed for everyday essentials, though size may vary depending on the specific phone model.

How does the size 8 fit compared to standard sizing?

The Regatta Perissa generally follows standard UK sizing, and the shirred back provides a degree of tolerance if you prefer a more fitted look.

Can the tie-bow at the front be untied?

Yes, the tie-bow is a functional detail, allowing you to adjust the neckline slightly for comfort.

Is this dress suitable for traveling?

Yes, its lightweight nature makes it an excellent choice for packing, though it may require a quick steam upon arrival.

Troubleshooting

Straps slipping off shoulders

Adjust the spaghetti straps to a tighter setting to ensure the bodice sits correctly against the chest.

Fabric appears wrinkled after storage

Lightly mist the fabric with water and hang in a humid space, or use a handheld steamer for quick wrinkle removal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress remains in top condition, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool water to preserve the cotton fibers.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible to avoid heat-related shrinkage and to maintain the tiered skirt shape.
  3. Ironing: Use a low-heat setting if necessary, preferably while the fabric is slightly damp, to smooth out wrinkles.
  4. Storage: Hang the dress in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup and to let the skirt hang naturally.
  5. Fit: If between sizes, consider the adjustment range provided by the shirred back and adjustable straps to help determine the best fit for your body type.
