FAQs

What occasions is the Cicine maxi dress suitable for?

The Cicine maxi dress is ideal for vacations, evening events, parties, and sophisticated casual outings. Its design allows it to be dressed up or down.

How do I determine the right size, given the oversized fit?

Consider your usual size for a very relaxed fit, or size down for a slightly more defined silhouette. Refer to the brand's specific size chart for detailed measurements.

Can the neckline be adjusted to be more modest?

Yes, the deep neckline is designed to be convertible. It can be worn open or closed, offering flexibility in styling to suit your preference and the occasion.

What material is the dress made of?

The dress is made from a blend of 57% Cupro and 43% Viscose, known for its smooth texture and elegant drape.

How should I care for the cupro blend fabric?

Dry cleaning is the recommended method. If hand washing, use cool water and a mild detergent, and lay flat to dry. Avoid machine washing and drying.

Does the dress come in other colors or patterns?

While this specific listing is for the Multicolor Geometric pattern, By Malene Birger often offers variations in color and pattern for their popular styles. Please check product listings for available options.

Is the dress suitable for warm weather?

Yes, the lightweight cupro blend makes it suitable for warm weather. It offers breathability and a comfortable drape.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom. If necessary, iron on a cool setting on the reverse side.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

This may indicate improper washing. Professional dry cleaning is the best method to maintain softness. If hand-washed, ensure a very mild detergent was used and rinsed thoroughly.

Neckline is too deep for comfort.

Utilize the convertible feature to close the neckline more securely. Alternatively, wear a complementary camisole or a discreet fashion tape to hold the fabric in place.

Garment seems to have lost its original drape.

Ensure the dress was stored correctly on a suitable hanger and avoid harsh washing or drying methods. Professional cleaning may help restore the fabric's natural flow.
