FAQs
Is this dress suitable for taller women?
This specific variant is designed as a Petite model. We recommend checking our non-petite sizing options if you require additional length.
How should I clean the satin fabric?
Due to the nature of the satin, professional dry cleaning is the recommended method to preserve the integrity and finish of the fabric.
Does the dress have a built-in bra?
The dress does not feature a built-in bra; we recommend pairing it with a supportive, skin-tone strapless bra.
Will the side split affect the formality of the dress?
The side split is designed to be subtle, providing elegance and movement without compromising the formal, sophisticated look of the maxi dress.
Can I iron this dress?
Ironing is generally not recommended as high heat can damage satin. If you must iron, use the lowest setting and a pressing cloth.
Is the fabric prone to stretching?
Satin is a structured fabric and does not typically stretch. Ensure you check your measurements against our size guide before ordering to guarantee the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles upon taking the dress out of packaging
Gently steam the garment using a low-heat setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to allow the creases to drop out naturally.
Difficulty keeping the Bardot neckline in place
Ensure you are wearing a supportive, strapless base layer. If necessary, use fashion tape to secure the inner lining of the neckline to your skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in pristine condition, proper care is essential. Due to the delicate satin material, we recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's luster and structure. If minor wrinkling occurs before an event, use a low-heat steamer, keeping the nozzle several inches away from the fabric to avoid water marks. For storage, hang the garment in a breathable fabric dress bag to prevent dust accumulation and fabric snagging. Avoid wearing sharp accessories that could catch on the satin weave during the event. If you need to pair this dress with accessories, opt for smooth, snag-free jewelry.
