FAQs
What occasions is this dress suitable for?
This dress is versatile and suitable for a range of occasions, from casual daytime events like brunches to more formal gatherings and even office wear, depending on how it is styled.
How do I care for the linen-viscose blend fabric?
It is best to hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Lay flat or hang to dry and iron on a low heat setting. Avoid tumble drying.

The linen-viscose blend makes it particularly suitable for warmer weather. For cooler seasons, it can be layered with a jacket, cardigan, or worn with tights and boots.
How does the midi length fit?
The dress has a versatile 140cm length, which typically sits elegantly at the mid-calf, offering a flattering proportion for most wearers.

Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after washing
Gently steam the dress or iron on a low setting while slightly damp. Ensure proper drying methods are followed to minimize wrinkles.
Fabric feels stiff
This is characteristic of a linen blend. With wear and proper washing, the fabric will soften. Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and mild detergent.
Seam or pintuck detail is damaged
Avoid harsh washing or machine drying. For minor damage, a skilled tailor may be able to repair it. Inspect the garment carefully before washing.
Dress does not fit as expected
Refer to the sizing guide and compare with your measurements. Consider the intended fit of the dress; some styles are designed for a looser drape.
