FAQs
Is the fabric suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, it is primarily made of cotton, which is a breathable natural fiber that allows for good airflow.
Can I put this dress in the tumble dryer?
It is recommended to air dry this dress to protect the crinkle texture and prevent the fabric from shrinking.
Does the dress have pockets?
This model focuses on a streamlined silhouette with princess seams and does not feature pockets.
Is the sizing consistent with standard UK measurements?
Yes, Cotton Traders standard sizing applies; however, the elasticated waist provides extra room for comfort.
Will I need to iron this dress?
One of the key benefits of the crinkle fabric is that ironing is unnecessary and generally discouraged.
Troubleshooting
Fabric looks less 'crinkled' after washing
Avoid ironing the garment. Instead, allow the dress to air dry naturally, which helps the crinkle texture reset.
Dress feels slightly tight at the waist
The elasticated back is designed for comfort, but ensure the dress is pulled up correctly to align with your natural waistline to maximize the stretch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress lasts, follow the internal garment care label carefully. Given the crinkle texture, it is generally recommended to avoid high-heat ironing, as this can flatten the intended aesthetic of the fabric. When washing, use a gentle cycle with like colors. For the best longevity, avoid tumble drying at high temperatures; hanging the garment to dry naturally will help preserve both the material integrity and the crinkle finish. The dress pairs well with flat sandals, espadrilles, or light canvas sneakers for a complete summer look.
