FAQs

Is the dress true to size?

The dress is designed with a tailored fit through the waist and torso, so it is recommended to follow standard UK sizing for a structured look.

Can I machine wash this dress?

Due to the metallic finish and delicate structure, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric's integrity.

What kind of undergarments work best?

The dress is fully lined, but seamless nude undergarments are suggested to maintain the clean lines of the tailored silhouette.

Is the fabric itchy?

No, the dress is fully lined to ensure the metallic textured outer layer does not come into direct contact with the skin.

Does the dress have a zipper?

Yes, it features a discreet closure to maintain the clean lines of the bodice and waist.

Troubleshooting

Sleeve volume looks deflated after storage

Gently shake the sleeves and use your hands to reshape the gathers from the inside.

Minor wrinkling in the skirt

Use a handheld steamer on a low setting, keeping distance from the metallic fabric, or a cool iron with a pressing cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your dress, keep it hanging in a garment bag in a cool, dry closet. Avoid crushing the sleeves between other heavy garments. Because of the metallic textured finish, spot cleaning is recommended over machine washing. Always refer to the internal care label for specific temperature settings if ironing is required—ideally, use a low heat setting with a pressing cloth to avoid damaging the metallic sheen. The dress pairs well with minimal, classic heels and sleek jewelry, as the metallic texture and sleeve volume are statement features that do not require heavy accessories.
