FAQs

What type of fabric is the dress made from?

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide for Cotton Traders garments. The elasticated back waist provides some flexibility, but the core fit is based on standard UK sizing for a size 12.

Can this dress be worn in very hot weather?

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is suitable for casual occasions such as everyday wear, holidays, picnics, or casual gatherings. It can be dressed up slightly for informal events.

How should I care for the floral print?

To maintain the vibrancy of the floral print, wash the dress inside out in cool water with similar colors and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Troubleshooting

The elasticated back waist is designed to offer a flexible fit. If it feels consistently too tight or loose, consider if the size is appropriate or if minor alterations would improve comfort.

Fabric seems stiff after washing.

Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Tumble drying on a low heat and a low iron setting should help restore softness. Avoid harsh detergents.
