Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the fabric prone to shrinking?

As it is made from cotton, we recommend washing in cool water and avoiding high-heat tumble drying to prevent any potential shrinkage.

Does the dress have pockets?

This specific design focuses on a streamlined silhouette with princess seams, and does not include pockets.

How should I measure for size 20?

Use a flexible tape measure around the fullest part of your bust, waist, and hips, and compare these to the standard UK sizing chart provided by Cotton Traders.

Can I iron this dress?

We recommend avoiding ironing to preserve the intentional crinkle texture. If necessary, use a very light steam from a distance.

Is the material sheer?

The cotton fabric is chosen for a balance of breathability and coverage; it is generally opaque, though light-colored variations may benefit from appropriate undergarments.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears too loose at the waist

Ensure the elasticated back panel is properly centered; if fit remains an issue, consider a thin belt to define the waistline.

The crinkle texture seems to be flattening

Avoid using a heavy iron or high-heat steamer; gently shaking the fabric after washing can help restore the crinkle effect.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Cotton Traders dress, follow these guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool water to preserve the fabric's texture and color vibrancy.
  • Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation and color fading.
  • Storage: Store by hanging or folding loosely; avoid aggressive pressing, as heat can flatten the signature crinkle effect.
  • Styling: Pairs well with sandals for a daytime look or wedges for an elevated evening aesthetic.
