FAQs

What type of fabric is the dress made of?

The dress is made from sheer organdie, featuring botanical embroidery.

How should I care for this dress?

It is recommended to dry clean only to maintain the quality and appearance of the fabric and embroidery.

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for special occasions such as summer weddings, garden parties, and race day events.

Does the dress come with a slip?

The dress is fully lined for comfort, but a separate slip may be desired for additional coverage due to the sheer nature of the organdie.

What is the length of the dress?

The dress is a midi length, which typically falls below the knee and above the ankle.

How do the angel sleeves affect the fit?

The angel sleeves are designed to be soft and ethereal, providing a flattering silhouette that drapes gently over the upper arms.

Can this dress be worn in cooler weather?

Yes, the midi length and elegant design allow for layering. A lightweight pashmina or a tailored jacket can be added for cooler evenings.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears too sheer

Consider wearing a neutral-coloured slip or camisole underneath for added coverage, as the organdie fabric is intentionally translucent.

Embroidery feels delicate

Handle the dress with care, especially around the embroidered areas, to prevent threads from snagging or pulling.

Fabric wrinkling easily

Hang the dress immediately after dry cleaning. If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, or steam gently. Avoid direct heat.
