How should I wash this dress?

The dress is machine washable. For best results and to maintain its appearance, machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry by hanging or laying flat. Avoid tumble drying.

Can I wear this dress in cooler weather?

While designed for spring and summer, you can adapt it for cooler weather by layering with a stylish blazer, cardigan, or jacket, along with appropriate hosiery.

Does the dress come with a belt?

Yes, the dress features a feminine tie belt designed to cinch in the waist and enhance the fit and flare silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after washing.

Ensure you are using a gentle machine wash cycle and air drying by hanging or laying flat. If wrinkles persist, use a steamer or iron on the lowest heat setting with a pressing cloth.

The tie belt comes undone frequently.

Ensure you are tying the belt securely, perhaps with a double knot or a more elaborate bow that holds better. If the material is too slippery, you might try a different knot style or consult online guides for secure fabric belt tying techniques.

Dress feels too loose or too tight around the waist.

The dress features a tie belt for waist adjustment. If it feels too loose, cinch the belt tighter. If it feels too tight, ensure the belt is tied comfortably, or consider if a different dress size might be more suitable for your body shape if the 'True to size' fit doesn't align with your preference.

Floral print fading or dulling.

Always wash the dress in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid harsh detergents and direct, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight during drying or storage, which can contribute to color fading over time.

Proper care will maintain the dress's appearance and longevity. Always check the garment's internal care label for specific instructions, but generally:

  1. Washing: This dress is Machine Washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water to protect the fabric and print. Placing it in a mesh laundry bag can offer additional protection against snags.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics.
  3. Drying: To preserve the chiffon and prevent damage, it is recommended to air dry the dress by laying it flat or hanging it on a padded hanger. Avoid high heat from tumble dryers as it can damage polyester.
