FAQs
What size should I choose?
The dress features a body-skimming cut. Refer to the specific size chart provided by Nasty Gal for accurate measurements. If you are between sizes, consider your desired fit—a tighter fit for a bolder look or sizing up for slightly more comfort.
Can I machine wash this dress?
No, due to the delicate sequin embellishments and tassel hem, machine washing is not recommended. Hand wash gently in cold water or opt for professional dry cleaning to preserve the integrity of the dress.
How should I store the dress?
To protect the embellishments and prevent damage, store the dress on a padded hanger within a breathable garment bag. Avoid folding it for long periods to prevent creasing of the tassels.
Is this dress suitable for casual wear?
While you can style it creatively, this dress is primarily designed for special occasions, nights out, and celebratory events where its dazzling embellishments can truly shine. Its statement nature makes it less ideal for everyday casual wear.
What type of accessories work best with this dress?
To let the dress's unique embellishments take center stage, we recommend simple and elegant jewelry. Metallic boots or strappy heels complement its style, along with a chic clutch.
What material is the dress made from?
The dress is made from Polyester, offering a sleek look and feel, though specialized care is needed for the embellishments.
Troubleshooting
Sequins or tassels are coming loose.
Carefully trim any loose threads to prevent further unraveling. For multiple loose embellishments, professional repair by a tailor specializing in delicate garments is recommended.
Dress appears creased or wrinkled, especially the tassels.
Use a garment steamer from a safe distance to gently relax wrinkles. For tassels, use fingers to carefully separate and straighten them. Avoid direct heat or harsh ironing.
Dress feels tight or uncomfortable despite being the correct size.
Ensure proper fit by checking the size guide before purchase. The body-skimming cut is designed to be fitted; slight adjustments in styling (e.g., avoiding overly tight undergarments) can improve comfort. If persistent, consider sizing up.
Embellishments appear dull or dirty.
Gently spot clean any dull areas with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, dabbing lightly. Avoid rubbing, which can dislodge sequins. Ensure thorough drying before storage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Styling & Compatibility
This dress is highly compatible with various accessories and outerwear depending on the desired look. For a bold statement, pair with metallic boots. For a more classic evening event, opt for strappy heels and a clutch. Keep jewelry minimal to allow the dress's embellishments to be the focal point. An oversized blazer can be added for warmth or a chic layered look, easily removed to reveal the full dazzling effect of the dress.
Care Instructions
Given the delicate sequin embellishments and tassel hem, specialized care is crucial to maintain the dress's appearance and longevity. Improper care can lead to damage.
- Washing: Hand wash cold gently or professional dry clean only. Do not machine wash, as this can damage the sequins and tassels.
- Drying: Lay flat to dry on a clean towel. Do not tumble dry. Reshape tassels while damp if needed.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low setting from the inside out, using a protective cloth, avoiding direct contact with sequins and tassels. Steaming is often a gentler alternative for removing wrinkles.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to protect embellishments from snagging and dust. Avoid folding for extended periods to prevent creasing of tassels and potential damage to sequins.
