FAQs
Is this dress suitable for evening wear?
Yes, the sophisticated silhouette and colour block details make it an excellent choice for evening receptions and formal dinners.
What footwear works best with this midi dress?
Strappy heeled sandals are recommended to complement the asymmetrical hem and maintain an elegant, elongated look.
Does the dress offer much stretch?
The soft tailored design focuses on structure, so there is limited stretch compared to jersey fabrics. Ensure you consult the size guide for a proper fit.
Can I wear a necklace with the V-neckline?
Yes, a delicate pendant or minimal jewellery works best to complement the neckline without distracting from the dress's architectural design.
How should I store this dress?
It is best to store the dress on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to protect the fabric and maintain the shape of the tailored waist.
Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles upon taking out of storage
Use a garment steamer on a low setting, keeping a safe distance to allow the fabric to release wrinkles naturally.
Difficulty maintaining the wrap-style shape
Ensure the waist gathering is adjusted correctly; if the bodice feels loose, check that the internal tie or hook-and-eye closure is fully secured.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the dress remains in optimal condition, always check the internal care label for specific instructions. As a polyester garment, it is best to avoid aggressive washing cycles. It is recommended to either hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle with like colours. Hang the dress to air dry to prevent damage to the tailored structure. Because of the wrap-style construction, ensure you inspect the gathering at the waist before storage to avoid creasing. If the garment is wrinkled, use a low-heat setting on your iron or a hand-held steamer from a distance, keeping the nozzle away from any delicate embellishments if present.
