FAQs
Is the fabric prone to shrinking?
As the dress is made from polyester, it is generally resistant to shrinking; however, you should always avoid high heat during washing and drying to ensure the integrity of the fibers.
Can I wear a necklace with the cowl neckline?
Yes, shorter necklaces or pendants that sit above the cowl drape work best to complement the neckline without overcrowding it.
Does the dress have a lining?
The stretch polyester is designed to be opaque and smooth, but if you prefer extra coverage, a light slip can be worn underneath.
What size should I choose?
This garment is available in standard UK sizing. Refer to the size 16 specifications provided for this variant to ensure an accurate fit.
Is this dress suitable for cold weather?
The polyester fabric is medium-weight. It is best suited for indoor events or temperate weather, though it can be paired with a coat or pashmina for cooler conditions.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage
Steam the garment lightly on a low setting or hang it in the bathroom while taking a hot shower to release creases.
Static cling in the fabric
Lightly mist the inside of the dress with water or use a standard anti-static spray before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress retains its shape and drape, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Hand wash in cool water or use a gentle cycle in your machine inside a garment bag. Avoid heavy agitation.
- Drying: Hang the dress to air dry immediately after washing. Do not tumble dry, as the heat can compromise the stretch material.
- Ironing: Use a cool iron only if necessary. It is recommended to use a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent shine or scorching.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulder drape. Avoid storing in cramped spaces that could cause unnecessary wrinkling.
