What is the 'Slouch' design?

The 'Slouch' design refers to a relaxed, slightly oversized, and draped silhouette that prioritizes comfort and a contemporary aesthetic.

Is the 'Poppy' red color true to the image?

Color representation can vary slightly based on screen settings, but 'Poppy' is a vibrant, rich shade of red. We recommend viewing on multiple devices if possible.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels itchy

High-quality wool can sometimes have a slight initial stiffness. Wearing it with a thin layer underneath, like a silk slip, can mitigate this. The fabric should soften with wear.

Dress appears too long

The maxi length can be tailored by a professional seamstress to achieve the desired length. Ensure the tailor is experienced with wool garments.

Zipper is difficult to use

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught. If persistent, a professional tailor can often repair or replace a faulty zipper.

Wool shows signs of pilling

Minor pilling is natural with wool. You can carefully remove pills using a fabric shaver or by gently picking them off. Avoid abrasive contact with the fabric.
