FAQs

What material is the dress made from?

The dress is crafted from a woven modal-rich fabric, known for its soft, smooth handle, comfort, and shape retention.

How should I style the dress for a formal event?

For a formal event, pair the dress with elegant heeled mules or sandals, a sophisticated clutch bag, and potentially understated drop earrings. Let the neckline hardware be the main statement.

Can this dress be worn in cooler weather?

Yes, the midi length and fabric offer coverage. For cooler weather, layer a fine-knit longline cardigan or a tailored blazer over the top.

What are the care instructions for the gold-tone hardware?

Avoid direct contact with perfumes, lotions, and harsh chemicals. Gently polish with a soft, dry cloth if needed, being careful not to damage the fabric.

How does the drop waist design affect the fit?

The drop waist design features seaming that cinches the narrowest part of your torso before the skirt begins to flow. This creates an elongating silhouette.

What is the best way to clean this dress?

Due to the fabric and hardware, it is recommended to dry clean only.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears creased after storage.

Hang the dress on a padded hanger to allow creases to fall naturally. If persistent, a professional dry clean with steam pressing is recommended.

Gold-tone hardware loses its shine.

Ensure the hardware does not come into direct contact with harsh chemicals, perfumes, or lotions. Gently polish with a soft, dry cloth designed for jewelry if needed, being careful not to rub the fabric.

Dress does not drape as expected.

Ensure the correct size has been selected. The dress is designed for a relaxed yet defined fit; try adjusting the way it hangs on your shoulders.
