What material is the dress made from?

The dress is crafted from a woven modal-rich fabric, known for its soft, smooth handle and excellent drape.

How long is the dress?

The midi length falls approximately 134cm from the shoulder to the hem.

How should I accessorize this dress?

The prominent gold-tone hardware at the neckline serves as a statement piece. It is recommended to keep other jewelry minimal to let the dress's detail take center stage.

Can this dress be worn in different seasons?

Yes, the dress is suitable for warm weather on its own. For cooler temperatures, it can be layered with a fine-knit longline cardigan.

What type of shoes pair best with this dress?

For a daytime look, strappy leather flat sandals are recommended. For evening wear, block-heeled mules or elegant heels would be suitable.

Does the dress run true to size?

Based on standard sizing, it is designed to fit true to size. Please refer to the size guide for specific measurements.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and cold water. Avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade modal fibers. Lay flat to dry instead of tumble drying.

Dress loses shape after wear

The modal-rich fabric is designed to hold its shape. If significant loss of shape occurs, ensure proper drying (lay flat) and consider gentle steaming rather than heavy ironing.

Gold hardware appears tarnished

Gently wipe the hardware with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or polishes directly on the metal, as this can damage the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As a dress, there is no technical setup required. It is designed for general wear and is compatible with most standard women's clothing sizes. Care instructions are crucial to maintaining the quality of the modal-rich fabric:

  • Washing: Hand wash or use a delicate cycle in cold water. Avoid harsh detergents.
  • Drying: Lay flat to dry or hang to air dry. Avoid tumble drying to prevent shrinkage or damage.
  • Ironing: Iron on a low heat setting if necessary, preferably while the garment is still slightly damp. Avoid ironing directly on the gold hardware.
