FAQs
Is this dress true to size?
The Oasis Ruffle Square Neck Midi Dress is generally designed to fit true to UK sizing standards. We recommend consulting the brand's specific size chart for precise measurements. If you are between sizes, consider your bust and waist measurements for the best fit.
Can I wear this dress for non-bridesmaid events?
Absolutely! While perfect for bridesmaids, its elegant design, rich colour, and luxurious fabric make it highly suitable for various other special occasions such as weddings (as a guest), formal parties, proms, or sophisticated dinners.
How do I prevent snags on the satin fabric?
To minimize the risk of snags, be mindful of rough surfaces, sharp-edged jewelry, and zippers. When storing, always use a garment bag. Handle the dress gently when putting it on or taking it off, and avoid leaning against abrasive textures.
What type of undergarments should I wear with this dress?
Given the smooth and sometimes unforgiving nature of satin fabric, seamless or invisible undergarments are highly recommended to maintain a sleek silhouette. A strapless or multi-way bra would be ideal to complement the square neckline.
Can I shorten the midi length?
Yes, the length of the dress can be altered to your preference by a professional tailor. Ensure they have experience working with delicate satin fabrics to maintain the integrity of the hem and prevent any puckering.
Will the emerald green colour fade over time?
With proper care, including washing in cold water, using a colour-safe detergent, and avoiding direct sunlight during drying, the vibrant emerald green colour should be well-maintained and resist fading over time. Always follow the care instructions meticulously.
Is the dress suitable for all seasons?
The polyester satin fabric offers a medium weight, making it versatile. It can be worn comfortably in spring and summer, and with appropriate layering (like a shawl or blazer), it can also be styled for autumn and indoor winter events.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage or wear.
Gently steam the dress using a handheld steamer, or iron on the lowest setting with a pressing cloth. Always iron the dress inside out. Hang immediately after steaming/ironing to prevent new creases.
Fabric feels clingy or generates static electricity.
Lightly spray the inside of the dress with an anti-static spray. Ensure it is completely dry before wearing. Alternatively, rub a dryer sheet over the inside of the dress.
A small snag has appeared on the fabric.
Do not pull the snag. Gently push the loose thread back into the weave of the fabric using a fine needle from the inside of the garment. Avoid cutting the thread unless it's clearly a loose sewing thread.
The colour of the dress seems dull after washing.
Ensure you are using cold water and a mild, colour-safe detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or excessive heat during washing and drying, as these can affect the fabric's sheen and colour vibrancy.
The dress doesn't lay smoothly or bunches up.
Check your undergarments; seamless or invisible options work best with satin. Ensure the dress is properly sized. Sometimes a half-slip can also help the dress drape more smoothly.

The dress is designed for adult wearers and does not have specific compatibility requirements beyond typical clothing.## Care Instructions- Before First Wear: If the dress arrives wrinkled from packaging, gently steam it or iron on the lowest setting with a pressing cloth. Always iron the dress inside out if possible. - Washing: We highly recommend hand washing in cold water with a mild, colour-safe detergent. If using a machine, select a delicate cycle with cold water and place the dress in a mesh laundry bag to protect it from snags.- Drying: Air dry flat on a clean towel or hang to dry on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the satin fabric and cause shrinking or dullness.- Ironing/Steaming: Use a steam iron on the lowest heat setting or a handheld steamer to remove wrinkles. Always use a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent scorching or shine marks. Iron from the inside out to protect the surface.- Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to prevent wrinkles, dust, and snags. Ensure your closet is not overcrowded to allow the fabric to hang freely and maintain its shape.
