FAQs
What season is this dress most suitable for?
This Floral Stretch Gathered Shift Dress is designed with Spring/Summer in mind, thanks to its vibrant floral print and lighter stretch jersey fabric. However, it can be layered for cooler transitional weather.
Is the fabric breathable?
The fabric is a Polyester and Elastane blend. While it offers excellent stretch and comfort, it may not be as breathable as natural fibers like cotton or linen, especially in very hot and humid conditions.
How should I style this dress for different occasions?
For a casual look, pair it with sandals and a denim jacket. To dress it up, add heels or wedges, subtle jewelry, and a light cardigan or blazer. Its versatility makes it suitable for day-to-night transitions.
Can I tumble dry this dress?
While the label states 'Machine Washable', it's best to air dry by hanging the dress to preserve the fabric's elasticity and prevent potential shrinking or damage. If you must tumble dry, use a very low heat setting and remove promptly.
What type of undergarments are best for this dress?
Due to its stretch jersey fabric and shift style, seamless or nude-colored undergarments are generally recommended to ensure a smooth silhouette, especially if the fabric is lighter in color or weight.
Does this dress have pockets?
The product description does not specify pockets. Typically, shift dresses of this style do not include pockets unless explicitly mentioned.
Is the floral print exactly as shown in pictures?
While the print will be consistent in style and color palette (Multicolor Floral), minor variations in pattern placement may occur between individual garments due to the manufacturing process. The overall aesthetic will remain the same.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased after washing.
Hang the dress immediately after washing to air dry. If creases persist, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, or use a steamer.
Color seems to be fading.
To preserve color vibrancy, wash the dress inside out in cold water with similar colors. Avoid direct sunlight when drying for prolonged periods.
Dress feels less stretchy or has lost its shape.
Ensure you are washing and drying according to the care label, avoiding high heat which can degrade elastane over time. Gentle cycles and air drying are recommended.
Fit is not as expected despite being 'true to size'.
While 'true to size' is a general guide, individual body shapes vary. Refer to Roman's specific size chart if available for detailed measurements. Consider trying a size up or down if previous Roman garments fit differently.
