FAQs
What is the best way to clean this dress?
Due to the structured twill fabric, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the shape and pleats.
Does the fabric have any stretch?
The fabric is a structured twill, which is designed to hold its shape rather than stretch. It is recommended to choose your size carefully based on your measurements.
What type of bra works best with the plunge neckline?
A plunge-style adhesive bra or a low-cut convertible bra is typically the most compatible option for this neckline.
Is this dress suitable for outdoor weddings?
Yes, the midi length and breathable sleeveless design make it a great option for outdoor formal events.
Can the dress be altered?
While minor adjustments can be made by a professional tailor, changing the structure of the waist or bodice may impact the original design intent.
Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight around the waist
The structure of the twill fabric means it does not stretch. Ensure you are wearing appropriate seamless shapewear that does not add unnecessary bulk.
Neckline gapes while moving
Use fashion tape to secure the plunge neckline edges to your skin or the inner edge of your undergarment to keep the fabric flush against your chest.
Wrinkles in the skirt after storage
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 10-15 minutes or use a handheld steamer to gently release the pleats.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in peak condition, always adhere to the specific care label instructions located inside the garment. Given the nature of structured twill, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the integrity of the fabric's structure and the pleats. If you need to remove wrinkles, use a low-heat setting on your iron or a garment steamer, keeping a safe distance to avoid damaging the fabric fibers. For compatibility, ensure you have measured your natural waist and bust before selecting your UK size, as the structured fabric does not provide the 'give' typically found in stretch fabrics.
