FAQs
What is the best way to clean this dress?
Due to the structured fabric, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the silhouette and color vibrancy.
Can I wear a standard bra with this dress?
Due to the plunge neck and off-shoulder design, a standard bra will be visible. We recommend a stick-on bra or a plunging strapless bra.
Is the fabric stretchy?
The dress is designed with a structured fabric meant to sculpt the body, so it features limited stretch compared to jersey garments.
What occasions are best for this red midi dress?
Its vibrant color and elegant cut make it perfect for date nights, cocktail parties, holiday events, or any formal evening gathering.
How should I store the dress?
Hang it on a wide, padded hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent the shoulders from losing their shape.
Does the dress fit true to size?
The dress follows standard UK sizing; however, the corset-style bodice provides a more tailored fit, so if you are between sizes, you may want to check the size guide.
Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight around the ribcage
The corset-style bodice is designed for a firm fit; ensure you are not wearing a bulky bra underneath and consider a thinner, adhesive-style cup.
Shoulders slipping down during movement
Ensure the garment is correctly positioned on the frame; if it persists, fashion tape can be used to secure the shoulder fabric to the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best look, ensure you have a strapless or plunging-neckline compatible bra, as the front cut makes traditional straps visible. When putting on the dress, step into the skirt section to avoid snagging the bodice structure over your head. Regarding care, the structured nature of the fabric means it should ideally be dry cleaned to preserve the shape and color intensity. If spot cleaning is necessary, use a damp cloth without harsh detergents, and always store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain the integrity of the shoulders and sleeves.
