FAQs
What does 'Ruched Hem' mean?
A 'ruched hem' refers to a gathered or pleated detail at the bottom edge of the garment, creating a decorative, often slightly ruffled effect that adds texture and style.
Is this bolero suitable for cooler weather?
The Roman Ruched Hem Chiffon Bolero is made from lightweight, sheer chiffon, making it primarily a styling piece for mild weather or indoor events. It offers minimal warmth and is not intended for cooler temperatures.
Can I wear this bolero with casual outfits?
While designed to accessorize evening wear, its simple elegance can also complement smart casual outfits, such as a camisole paired with tailored trousers or a nice skirt, adding a touch of refinement.
How transparent is the chiffon fabric?
The chiffon fabric is designed to be sheer, allowing the color and style of your underlying garments to be visible. It provides a light, ethereal layer rather than full coverage.
Does the bolero run true to size?
Yes, the Roman Ruched Hem Chiffon Bolero is described as a 'Womens Regular fit' and is generally considered 'True to size.' We recommend selecting your usual dress size.
How should I store this bolero to prevent wrinkles?
To minimize wrinkles and help maintain its shape, it's best to hang the bolero on a padded hanger in your wardrobe. Avoid overcrowding your closet to allow the fabric to breathe.
Troubleshooting
Garment appears wrinkled after washing.
Chiffon can wrinkle. After washing, gently shake out the bolero and hang it immediately to air dry. If wrinkles persist, use a steamer or iron on the lowest setting with a pressing cloth to protect the delicate fabric.
Bolero feels static or clings to other clothes.
Polyester can sometimes generate static electricity. Try using a fabric softener during the wash cycle or apply a static-guard spray before wearing the bolero. Ensuring it is fully dry can also help.
Loose threads or snags on the delicate chiffon.
Chiffon is delicate and requires careful handling. Avoid contact with sharp objects or rough surfaces. If a loose thread appears, carefully trim it with sharp scissors; do not pull it. For minor snags, gently try to push the thread back into place with a needle.

Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the beauty and longevity of your Roman Ruched Hem Chiffon Bolero.
- Machine Washable: Place the bolero in a mesh laundry bag to protect it, and wash on a gentle cycle using cold or lukewarm water.
