Product Information

Full details

This Goddiva navy maxi dress is designed for adult females seeking sophisticated evening wear. Its key benefit is offering understated opulence and a flattering silhouette for elegant occasions. A potential caveat is the specialized care required for the satin and scuba crepe materials. The dress features an off-the-shoulder Bardot neckline, a plunging front, pleated satin sleeves, and a dramatic mermaid hem, all crafted from a sculpting scuba crepe.

FAQs

What kind of undergarments should I wear with the Bardot neckline?

Consider a strapless bra or adhesive bra cups for a seamless look. The plunging neckline may also influence your choice.

Is the navy blue color true to the images?

The navy blue is described as deep and rich. While screen variations exist, the color is intended to be a sophisticated, dark blue.

Can this dress be altered?

Yes, like most garments, it can be altered by a professional seamstress. Altering the mermaid hem or neckline should be done by someone experienced with formal wear.

How does the scuba crepe fabric feel?

Scuba crepe is known for its medium to heavy weight, smooth finish, and excellent drape. It holds its shape well and offers a comfortable, slightly structured feel.

What accessories would best complement this dress?

Silver or gold-toned jewelry, a clutch bag, and elegant heels would complement the dress. Consider the occasion when choosing your accessories.

Is this dress suitable for petite figures?

The mermaid hem can elongate the figure. However, petite individuals may require hemming for the perfect length. Consult a seamstress for precise fitting.

Troubleshooting

Dress does not fit as expected

Consult the detailed size chart provided by Goddiva. Ensure measurements are taken correctly. If between sizes, consider the fabric's sculpting nature and intended fit.

Satin sleeves appear creased

Use a cool iron with a pressing cloth. Iron from the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct high heat.

Fabric feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure the dry cleaner is experienced with satin and crepe fabrics. If still stiff, a professional garment steamer on a low setting might help, but test first.

Zipper is difficult to move

Gently check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of lubricant like graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
