FAQs

Is this dress true to size?

The Phase Eight Mira Midi Dress is designed to standard UK sizing. We recommend checking your measurements against the brand's size guide for the best fit, specifically focusing on the waist measurement due to the tailored design.

Can I tumble dry this dress?

No, it is highly recommended to air dry this dress away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and the structural integrity of the pleats.

Is the fabric suitable for summer weddings?

The polyester fabric is durable and retains its shape well, though it may feel warmer than linen or cotton. It is suitable for most indoor and outdoor celebrations, provided the weather is not extremely humid.

Does the dress feature a lining?

Yes, the dress is constructed to provide opacity and comfort, ensuring a smooth silhouette and preventing the fabric from clinging.

Can the length be altered?

While the hem can be shortened by a professional tailor, altering pleated midi dresses can be complex to ensure the hemline remains even. Consult a specialist before attempting alterations.

Troubleshooting

Pleats look flattened or wrinkled after travel

Hang the garment in the bathroom while taking a hot shower; the ambient steam will help relax the wrinkles without needing direct contact with an iron.

Static cling on the polyester fabric

Lightly mist the inside of the dress with water or a dedicated anti-static spray before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress remains in optimal condition, adhere to the following care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Always check the inner garment label for specific washing instructions. Typically, polyester blends should be hand-washed or machine-washed on a gentle cycle in a protective mesh laundry bag.
  2. Storage: Hang the dress on a wide, padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and the hang of the pleats. Avoid folding the dress for long periods to prevent permanent creases.
  3. Ironing/Steaming: Avoid high-heat direct ironing on the pleated sections, as this can flatten the fabric texture. If steaming is necessary, use a low-heat setting from a distance to gently release any packing wrinkles.
  4. Compatibility: This dress pairs well with classic pumps, strappy sandals, or elegant clutch bags to complete a formal look.
