FAQs
What undergarments work best with the bardot neckline?
A strapless, adhesive, or convertible multi-way bra is recommended to keep the neckline looking clean and avoid visible straps.
Is the fabric suitable for very hot weather?
The dress is designed for Spring and Summer, and the flowy fit-and-flare skirt allows for good airflow, making it comfortable for warm days.
How should I clean the floral print?
Machine wash on a delicate cycle with like colors using a mild detergent, and avoid bleach to keep the blue tones vibrant.
Does the waist adjust for different sizes?
Yes, the shirred bodice is designed with elasticity, allowing for a comfortable, custom-like fit that accommodates minor variations in size.
What shoes pair best with this midi dress?
Flat sandals create a casual look, while wedges or block-heeled sandals will dress up the silhouette for evening events.
Troubleshooting
Shirring feels tight after washing
Ensure the dress is washed in cool water and avoid high heat in the dryer, as heat can cause elastic to lose its flexibility.
Neckline slipping during movement
Ensure the shoulder bands are positioned correctly above the shoulder joint; for extra security, clear fashion tape can be used to hold the fabric in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your dress, always follow the garment's internal care label, typically recommending machine washing on a gentle cycle. For best results, hang the dress to air dry to protect the integrity of the shirred elasticated fabric. The bardot neckline is most compatible with a strapless or multi-way bra to achieve the intended off-the-shoulder look. When storing, fold the dress carefully or hang it in a cool, dry place to prevent wrinkling the delicate leaf print fabric.
