FAQs
What is the best way to clean this dress?
Professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric's quality and the specific structure of the ruffles.
Can I wear this dress with a jacket?
Because of the ruffled cape sleeves, a traditional tailored jacket may be bulky. A delicate shawl or pashmina is a better choice for layering.
Is the dress true to size?
The dress comes in standard UK sizing, and the self-tie waist allows for some flexibility in how the garment sits on your frame.
Does the dress have a zipper?
Yes, it is designed with a secure closure to ensure it stays in place throughout your event.
Is the material sheer?
No, the dress is fully lined to provide full coverage and a smooth, comfortable feel.
What kind of shoes match this dress?
Strappy heeled sandals are ideal as they complement the length and the elegant, airy style of the maxi skirt.
Troubleshooting
Wrinkles in the fabric after unpacking
Use a garment steamer on a low setting or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for several minutes to allow the wrinkles to release gently.
Fabric snagged on jewellery
Gently pull the fabric taut around the snag and use a needle to carefully ease the loop back into the weave; do not cut the thread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your event, ensure the dress is steamed on a low heat setting to remove any wrinkles sustained during storage or transport, taking special care around the ruffled sections. Due to the woven viscose construction, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the fabric and the precision of the ruffles. When storing, hang the dress on a wide, padded hanger to prevent shoulder distortion or creases in the cape area. Avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp jewellery that may snag the delicate georgette fibers.
