FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is perfect for formal events such as galas, cocktail parties, weddings, awards ceremonies, and any memorable night out where you want to make a sophisticated statement.

How should I clean the Dobby Mesh Feather Sleeve Hem Maxi Dress?

Due to its delicate dobby mesh fabric and feather embellishments, dry cleaning is strongly recommended to maintain the dress's quality and appearance.

Is the mesh fabric see-through?

The dobby mesh fabric is sheer. It's designed to offer an elegant and subtle transparency while maintaining modesty in key areas. We recommend pairing it with appropriate seamless, nude-colored undergarments for your comfort.

How durable are the feather cuffs?

The feathered cuffs are designed to be a striking feature. While attached securely, feathers are delicate. Handle with care, avoid rubbing against rough surfaces, and store properly to maintain their fluffiness and prevent shedding.

What material is the dress made of?

The dress is made from 100% Polyester, offering a comfortable fit and elegant drape.

Can I iron this dress?

It is best to use a garment steamer to remove wrinkles. If ironing, use a very cool setting and iron on the reverse side of the mesh fabric only, carefully avoiding any feathered areas. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What size is this particular dress?

This specific dress is a UK size 22. Please consult the brand's size chart for accurate measurements to ensure the best fit.

Are there other sizes or colors available?

This dress is available in other UK sizes (18, 20, 24, 26) within the Goddiva Plus range. The color available for this particular product is Black.

Troubleshooting

Feathers appear flattened or creased.

Gently fluff the feathers with your fingers. For persistent creases, hold the dress over a steaming shower or use a handheld garment steamer from a safe distance, being careful not to soak the feathers. Avoid direct heat.

Snags in the mesh fabric.

Due to the delicate nature of mesh, snags can occur. Gently try to work the snag back into place with a needle, or if it's minor, it may blend in. Avoid pulling threads.

Dress feels too long.

A professional tailor can safely hem the dress to your desired length. Ensure the tailor is experienced with delicate fabrics and finishes.

V-back neckline doesn't sit right.

Check your bra straps and ensure they are not interfering with the neckline. Adjusting posture or using fashion tape can help keep the neckline in place.
