FAQs

What is the best way to wash this dress?

The dress is machine washable. It is recommended to wash it on a gentle cycle with similar colors and to air dry it to maintain fabric quality and shape. Always refer to the specific care label on the garment for detailed instructions.

What material is the dress made from?

The dress is made from a blend of 55% Cotton and 45% Viscose.

How long is the dress?

The dress is cut to an elegant midi length, with a length of approximately 135cm for a size 16.

Is this dress suitable for formal events?

While primarily designed for a garden party aesthetic, it can be dressed up with appropriate accessories like heels and statement jewelry for semi-formal occasions. For very formal events, other styles might be more suitable.

Does the shirring provide a lot of stretch?

The shirred bodice offers a comfortable and flexible fit, adapting to your shape. However, the stretch is primarily from the shirring itself, within the constraints of the fabric blend.

Can I wear this dress in hot weather?

The cotton-viscose blend offers some breathability, making it suitable for warmer days. However, the puff sleeves and midi length may make it feel warmer in very high temperatures compared to lighter, sleeveless options.

What shoes pair well with this dress?

This dress pairs well with a variety of footwear. For a casual look, consider sneakers or flat sandals. For a more dressed-up appearance, wedges, espadrilles, or heeled sandals are excellent choices.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels too tight in the bust or waist

The shirred bodice offers some flexibility. Ensure you are wearing the correct size as per the size guide. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider if the blend of cotton and viscose might be less forgiving than expected for your body shape.

Fabric appears creased after washing

This is common with cotton-viscose blends. Remove the dress from the washing machine promptly and smooth it out. Hang to air dry. If creases persist, iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side.

Color seems different from online images

Monitor settings and lighting can affect color perception. The dress is described as 'Blue' with a 'Checkered' pattern. Refer to the product description for color accuracy.
