FAQs

What occasions is the Levita Satin Maxi Dress suitable for?

The dress is ideal for evening events, formal gatherings, cocktail parties, weddings, and galas due to its elegant satin material and maxi length.

How should I choose my size?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for By Malene Birger, paying attention to measurements for bust, waist, and hips to ensure a proper fit.

Can this dress be altered?

Yes, like most garments, it can be altered by a professional tailor. However, alterations should be considered carefully to maintain the original design lines, especially around the neckline and back.

Is the dress suitable for warm weather?

The satin material can be relatively breathable. However, its unlined nature means it's best suited for moderate to cool evenings. For very warm weather, consider lighter fabrics.

What type of undergarments should be worn with this dress?

Given the V-neck and back, seamless undergarments are recommended. Consider a low-back bra or adhesive options for optimal comfort and invisibility.

How does the unlined construction affect the fit?

The unlined construction allows the satin to drape more naturally and offers a lighter feel. It means the garment's fit and appearance will be more influenced by the wearer's undergarments.

Troubleshooting

Satin appears creased

Hang the dress on a padded hanger in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to release light wrinkles. For stubborn creases, use a cool iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth.

Fabric snagged

For minor snags, try gently pushing the snagged thread back through to the reverse side with a fine needle. Avoid pulling on the snag.

Dress lost its sheen

This can sometimes occur with improper washing or wear. Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions. For a slight restoration of sheen, a very light press with a cool iron and pressing cloth on the reverse may help, but avoid excessive heat.
