FAQs
What occasions is this Roman Floral Print Dress suitable for?
Its elegant floral print and comfortable stretch fabric make it incredibly versatile. It's suitable for a range of occasions, including office wear, casual outings, garden parties, brunches, or semi-formal gatherings.
Is the fabric breathable for warm weather?
The dress is made from 92% Polyester and 8% Elastane. While the elastane provides comfortable stretch, polyester can be less breathable than natural fibers like cotton in very hot conditions. It is generally well-suited for moderate temperatures and can be layered for cooler days.
How should I wash this dress?
It is machine washable. We recommend washing with similar colors on a cold or gentle cycle. Do not use bleach. Air dry by hanging or tumble dry on a low setting to maintain the fabric's integrity and shape.
What is the approximate length of the dress?
For a Size 16, the dress has an approximate knee-length cut of 105cm from shoulder to hem. This length offers versatile coverage suitable for many settings.
Are the buttons on the front functional?
No, the dress features a 'mock button detail' on the front. This means the buttons are decorative and not functional. The dress is designed for easy pull-on wear.
How does the 'stretch jersey fabric' affect the fit and comfort?
The stretch jersey fabric, which includes 8% Elastane, provides a comfortable and flattering fit that gently adapts to your body's contours without feeling restrictive. It allows for ease of movement, ensuring comfort throughout your day.
Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected your correct size. This dress is designed to be 'true to size,' but body shapes vary. Refer to Roman's official size guide if available for precise measurements, or consider exchanging for a different size if the fit is not ideal.
Fabric appears creased after washing.
To minimize creasing, machine wash on a gentle cycle and promptly remove the dress once the cycle finishes. Hang dry immediately or tumble dry on a low setting. If creases persist, a light steam or cool iron (on the reverse side) can be used, avoiding direct heat on the floral print.
Floral print seems to be fading after washes.
Always wash the dress inside out with similar colors on a cold or delicate cycle to protect the print. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive drying temperatures. Over time, all prints may show slight wear, but proper care significantly prolongs vibrancy.
Dress length seems shorter/longer than expected.
The approximate length for a Size 16 is 105cm. Different sizes may have slight variations. If you believe the length is significantly off, measure the dress and compare it against the product specifications or contact customer support for clarification.

Care Instructions
Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your dress. Follow these guidelines:
- Machine Washable: Wash with similar colors on a cold or gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Air dry by hanging to maintain shape and prevent shrinking, or tumble dry on a low heat setting if necessary.
