Full details

Its dropped waist flows into a gathered skirt, blending comfort with a flattering silhouette. Made from 100% linen, it is also machine washable.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears too large or loose

The brand recommends choosing a size down for a neater fit. Consider exchanging for a smaller size or using a belt to cinch the waist.

Linen fabric is very wrinkled

Iron the dress while it is still damp on a medium heat setting. Ensure the iron is clean. For persistent wrinkles, a garment steamer can also be effective.

Dress has shrunk after washing

Ensure you followed the cool wash and low heat tumble dry instructions. Avoid high temperatures in both washing and drying. If slight shrinkage occurred, it may relax with wear. If significant shrinkage occurred, check the garment care label for specific manufacturer advice.

Color fading on the dress

Wash the dress inside out in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Ensure the care label instructions are strictly followed.
