FAQs
What occasions is this dress most suitable for?
This dress is ideal for special occasions such as weddings, garden parties, dinner events, cocktail parties, or any festive gathering where an elegant yet comfortable outfit is desired.
Is the dress true to size?
Yes, the product description indicates that this dress is 'True to size.' We recommend referring to the brand's specific size guide if available to confirm your best fit.
How should I wash this dress?
The dress is machine washable. For best results and to maintain the fabric's quality, always check the care label inside the garment for specific temperature settings and cycle recommendations, typically a gentle cold wash.
Is the fabric breathable for warm weather?
Made from 96% Polyester and 4% Elastane, the fabric is soft and stretchy for comfort. While polyester is durable, it is less breathable than natural fibers like cotton. It's best suited for moderate temperatures or events where you won't be exposed to extreme heat for extended periods.
Does this dress have pockets?
The product description does not mention any pockets. For dresses of this style, it's generally safe to assume there are no pockets unless explicitly stated.
What type of shoes pair best with this dress?
Heeled sandals are recommended to achieve a perfectly polished look. However, elegant wedges or dressy flats can also be worn, depending on the formality of the occasion and your personal comfort.
Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight or loose.
The dress is described as 'True to size'. Double-check your measurements against a standard size chart for Roman UK. If it's significantly off, consider exchanging for the correct size.
Fabric appears creased or wrinkled.
While polyester is generally wrinkle-resistant, creases can form. Hang the dress immediately after washing and drying. If creases persist, steam the garment or iron on a very low heat setting.
The keyhole detail at the neckline isn't sitting correctly.
Ensure the dress is pulled up evenly on both shoulders and adjusted around the neckline. Sometimes a well-fitted bra can also help the fabric sit smoothly.
Concealed zip is difficult to operate.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Carefully try to move the zipper up and down a few times. If resistance continues, avoid forcing it to prevent damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
How to Wear
Simply slip on the dress. The `concealed zip` and hook fastening at the back ensures a smooth and secure fit.
Styling & Compatibility
- Footwear: Best paired with heeled sandals for a polished, elongated look. Wedges or elegant flats can also work for comfort.
- Accessories: Keep jewelry refined to complement the keyhole neckline, such as delicate necklaces or stud earrings.
- Outerwear: A lightweight shawl, bolero, or tailored blazer can be added for cooler evenings or more formal settings.
Care Instructions
- Washing: This dress is machine washable. Always refer to the internal care label for specific temperature settings and cycle recommendations. Typically, a gentle cycle with cold water is advised to maintain fabric integrity and color.
- Drying: To preserve the stretch and shape, it's generally best to *line dry* or lay flat. If using a dryer, opt for a low heat setting.
- Ironing: Polyester blends are often wrinkle-resistant. If ironing is needed, use a low temperature setting or steam the garment to remove creases.
- Storage: Hang the dress to prevent wrinkles and maintain its shape.
