FAQs
What material is the Roman Stripe Print Pleated Midi Dress made of?
The dress is made from 100% Polyester for both the outer fabric and the lining.
How should I care for this dress?
This dress is machine washable. We recommend washing it on a gentle cycle with cold water and similar colors. Hang to dry, and if ironing is needed, use a low heat setting or steam.
Is the belt removable or integrated?
The description mentions a 'belted waist' as a key design feature, suggesting it is an integral part of the dress's design to create the flattering silhouette. It is not explicitly stated as removable.
What type of occasions is this dress suitable for?
This dress is ideal for special occasions during Spring and Summer, such as weddings, garden parties, a day at the races, or other semi-formal gatherings.
What kind of fit can I expect from this dress?
It features a regular fit that is true to size, with a flattering fit-and-flare silhouette designed to complement various body types.
Does the dress have pockets?
The product description does not mention any pockets, so it can be assumed that the dress does not include them.
Is the halterneck adjustable?
The dress has a 'tie-back detail' at the halterneck, which allows for some adjustability in how tightly it is secured around the neck for comfort and fit.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after washing or storage.
Polyester can wrinkle, especially with pleats. Use a garment steamer for quick wrinkle removal. If ironing, use a very low heat setting and iron inside out, or place a thin cloth between the iron and the dress to protect the fabric and print.
The tie-back or belted waist feels loose or doesn't stay tied.
Ensure you are tying the bow or knot securely. For the belt, double-knot if necessary, or consider a small, clear fashion tape underneath to help it stay in place against the fabric.
Concealed zip feels stiff or gets stuck.
Do not force the zipper. Gently try to move it up and down. If it persists, rubbing a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth can help it glide more smoothly. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper path.
Pleats lose their crispness over time.
Polyester pleats are generally durable. After washing, reshape the pleats gently with your hands while the dress is damp and hang it to dry. For stubborn pleats, a very light press with a steam iron (on a low setting, with a pressing cloth) can help reform them.
Dress fit isn't quite right despite being 'true to size'.
While generally true to size, individual body shapes vary. Ensure you've checked the brand's specific size guide. For minor adjustments, a local tailor can often make small alterations to achieve a perfect fit.

Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the dress's appearance and longevity.
- Washing: The dress is Machine Washable. It's recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors using cold water to protect the polyester fabric and print. Placing it in a mesh laundry bag can offer extra protection.
- Drying: Air dry by hanging the dress to prevent shrinking or damage to the pleats. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, to protect the print and fabric. Steaming is often a gentler alternative for removing wrinkles from pleated garments.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place to help maintain its shape and prevent creasing of the pleats.
