FAQs

What occasions is this dress most suitable for?

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings (especially as a bridesmaid dress), galas, formal dinners, and other special occasions where an elegant attire is required.

How do I determine if this size 6 will fit me?

Please refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for Oasis dresses. Generally, a UK size 6 is suitable for a bust measurement around 30-32 inches, waist around 24-26 inches, and hips around 32-34 inches. We recommend measuring yourself and comparing with the official chart.

Can this dress be altered?

Yes, satin garments can generally be altered by a professional tailor. Common alterations might include shortening the hem or adjusting the straps. However, altering the tie-back mechanism may be more complex.

Is the olive green color true to the picture?

Color representation can vary slightly based on screen settings and lighting. However, olive green is a classic shade, and the dress aims for an accurate depiction of this rich tone.

What type of undergarments are recommended?

Due to the satin fabric and cross-shoulder design, seamless nude undergarments are recommended. Depending on the desired support, a strapless bra or adhesive bra cups may be suitable.

How should I store this dress to maintain its quality?

Store the dress in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and light. Avoid folding it for long periods; hanging it on a padded hanger is preferable.

Troubleshooting

Dress arrives wrinkled

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom. If ironing, do so on the reverse side with a protective cloth on a cool setting.

Tie-back does not stay secure

Ensure the knot is tied firmly but not excessively tight. If the fabric is slippery, a double knot might provide more security. Consult care instructions for potential fabric treatments if persistent.

Satin loses its sheen

Avoid harsh detergents, high heat when ironing, and direct sunlight during drying. If the sheen has diminished, professional cleaning might help restore it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This is a ready-to-wear garment and requires no technical setup. Its primary compatibility is with formal wardrobes.

Care Instructions:

  • Material: 100% Polyester Satin.
  • Washing: Due to the delicate nature of satin, hand washing in cold water is recommended. Avoid machine washing.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the dress flat on a clean towel or hang it on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight to air dry.
  • Ironing: Use a cool iron setting. It is best to iron the dress inside out or place a thin cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent scorching or damaging the sheen.
  • Storage: Store in a garment bag to protect it from dust and snags.
