FAQs

What occasions is this dress most suitable for?

This dress is ideal for wedding season, garden parties, summer events, and other special occasions where an elegant and sophisticated floral statement is desired.

What material is the dress made of?

Both the outer fabric and the lining are made from 100% Polyester, providing a cool and woven texture.

How do I care for this dress?

The dress is machine washable. We recommend checking the care label for specific temperature settings and then hanging it to dry to maintain its shape and finish.

Is the tie belt removable?

Info needed: [Whether the tie belt is permanently attached or removable for styling options]. Typically, such belts are designed to be integrated but can be tied in various ways.

Does this dress have pockets?

Info needed: [Whether the dress has pockets]. Dresses of this style often do not include pockets to maintain a sleek silhouette.

How does the hanky hem affect the length?

The hanky hem creates an asymmetrical, flowing midi length. The longest points of the hem will fall around mid-calf, while shorter points will be slightly above, giving it a dynamic and elegant look.

Can I wear a standard bra with the open back design?

Due to the open back and thin strap details, a standard bra may be visible. We recommend opting for a strapless bra, stick-on bra, or going braless if comfortable, to achieve the intended sophisticated finish.

Troubleshooting

The tie belt doesn't seem to create the right fit-and-flare shape.

Ensure the tie belt is positioned at your natural waist. Experiment with tying it tighter or looser to achieve the desired silhouette that best flatters your body shape. The belt is designed to cinch, so adjust until comfortable and stylish.

The open back requires specific undergarments, and I'm unsure what to wear.

Consider a strapless bra, an adhesive stick-on bra, or pasties. For minimal support or if preferred, going without a bra is also an option. Test different options to find what feels most comfortable and provides the desired look.

The hanky hem doesn't hang quite right or seems wrinkled.

After washing, hang the dress to dry, gently smoothing the fabric to encourage proper drape. If wrinkles persist, use a garment steamer or iron on a very low setting, paying attention to the pleated sections and the hanky hem to restore its flowing appearance.

The polyester fabric feels prone to static cling.

To reduce static, use an anti-static spray on the inside of the dress. During washing, adding a fabric conditioner can also help minimize static electricity. Ensure the dress is thoroughly dry before wearing.
