FAQs

What is the length of the dress?

The dress has a length of 132cm.

Is the dress suitable for formal events?

While elegant, the dress is best suited for semi-casual to relaxed occasions due to its cotton fabric and broderie anglaise detailing. It might not be formal enough for black-tie events.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to standard UK women's dress sizing. The elasticated waist offers some flexibility, but it's advisable to select your usual size for the best fit across the shoulders and bust.

Can I bleach this dress?

No, bleaching is not recommended as it can damage the cotton fabric and the delicate embroidery. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions.

What kind of bra is best to wear with this dress?

A standard t-shirt bra or seamless bra would work well under the cotton fabric. The button-through front also allows for some adjustability if needed.

How does the elasticated waist affect the fit?

The gently elasticated waist is designed to cinch the fabric at the natural waistline, creating a flattering silhouette and providing comfort without being restrictive. It allows for flexibility in fit.

Troubleshooting

Dress arrived creased

Gently iron on a low heat setting, or hang in a steamy bathroom for a short period to release wrinkles.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners which can sometimes affect natural fibers. Air drying can also help maintain fabric softness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This dress requires no setup as it is a ready-to-wear garment. It is designed for adult women. To maintain its appearance and fabric integrity:

  • Washing: Machine wash the dress according to the care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Use cold or lukewarm water.
  • Drying: It is recommended to air dry the dress or tumble dry on a low heat setting to preserve the fabric and detailing. Avoid high heat.
  • Ironing: If needed, iron on a low setting, preferably inside out, to protect the broderie anglaise and embroidery.
  • Storage: Hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent stretching or creasing, especially around the elasticated waist.
