FAQs
Is this dress suitable for all body types?
The dress features a `figure-flattering` ruched design and `super stretchy` fabric that aims to complement various shapes. However, as it is a `Petite` fit, it is specifically proportioned for shorter frames. We recommend checking the brand's size guide for optimal fit.
What type of events is this dress best suited for?
This dress is ideal for `special occasions and events` such as weddings, garden parties, dinner dates, or semi-formal gatherings. Its elegant `floral` pattern and `knee-length` cut make it versatile for many festive settings.
How should I wash and care for this dress?
The dress is `Machine Washable`. For best results, follow the care label instructions, typically a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water. Air dry flat or hang to dry; avoid high heat in a tumble dryer.
Does the dress have any stretch?
Yes, it is crafted from a `super stretchy` fabric blend (96% Polyester, 4% Elastane), ensuring comfortable wear and ease of movement.
Is the dress lined?
Yes, the dress is `fully lined` with 100% Polyester, providing added comfort, a smooth drape, and increased modesty.
What is the length of the dress?
The dress is designed to finish `at the knee`, offering a classic and elegant length.
Troubleshooting
The dress doesn't seem to fit correctly despite ordering my usual size.
This dress is specified as a `Petite` fit. Please cross-reference your measurements with the Roman brand's specific size guide for petite sizing. The 'True to size' indication applies within the petite category, which has different proportions than standard regular sizing.
The concealed back zipper is difficult to operate.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try moving the zipper up and down a few times. If it's still stiff, lightly rub the teeth with a graphite pencil lead (ensure it doesn't stain the fabric) or a small amount of zipper lubricant to help it glide smoothly.
The fabric appears wrinkled after washing.
While the `Polyester` blend is generally wrinkle-resistant, gentle machine washing and air drying are recommended. If wrinkles persist, use a garment steamer or iron on a low heat setting, preferably with the dress inside out, to smooth them out without damaging the fabric or print.
The keyhole detail at the neckline doesn't lay flat.
Adjust the dress on your shoulders to ensure it's sitting correctly and evenly. The `super stretchy` fabric should allow it to conform well. If it's still an issue, ensure you've selected the correct `Petite` size for your frame, as an ill-fitting garment can sometimes cause such issues.

Care Instructions
To maintain the quality and longevity of your dress, please follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: The dress is `Machine Washable`. Always check the label for specific temperature recommendations, but generally, wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors using cold or lukewarm water.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent to protect the fabric's integrity and color.
- Drying: To prevent damage to the `Polyester` and `Elastane` blend, it is best to air dry the dress flat or hang it to dry. Avoid tumble drying on high heat, which can cause shrinkage or affect the fabric's stretch.
