FAQs

Is the fabric prone to shrinking?

To minimize the risk of shrinkage, always wash the dress in cool water and avoid high-heat tumble drying.

Does the dress have pockets?

The current design of the Alma Paisley Midi Dress does not feature pockets.

How do I choose the right size?

The dress comes in standard UK sizing. Consult the brand's size guide and consider the shirred bodice's natural stretch when selecting your fit.

Is the material see-through?

The fabric is designed to be light and floaty; however, the density of the print typically provides adequate coverage for daytime wear.

Can this dress be worn in cooler weather?

Yes, it can be layered with a cardigan, denim jacket, or paired with tights and boots for a transition into autumn.

Troubleshooting

Shirred bodice feels too tight

Ensure the bodice is pulled evenly over the shoulders and torso; if discomfort persists, consider sizing up to accommodate the bust/waist ratio.

Fabric looks wrinkled after washing

Use a steamer on a low setting or a cool iron to gently smooth out the fabric, taking care to avoid the elasticated shirring.

  • Lightweight and breathable for warm weather
  • Versatile design suitable for casual or smart-casual settings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This dress is designed for effortless wear. To maintain the integrity of the fabric and the shirred bodice, it is recommended to follow the care label instructions inside the garment. Generally, machine washing on a delicate cycle with a mild detergent is suitable. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleaches that could damage the print. For drying, hanging the garment to air dry is best to prevent shrinkage and maintain the light, floaty drape of the midi skirt. Ironing should be done on a low heat setting, avoiding the shirred sections to prevent loss of elasticity.
