FAQs

Is the dress true to size?

The dress follows standard UK sizing. Please refer to the size guide for specific measurements relative to a size 16.

Can I wear this in the summer?

Velvet is a dense, warm fabric, so it is better suited for cooler weather, autumn, or winter events.

How do I handle spills on velvet?

Do not rub the spot. Blot gently with a dry, clean cloth to absorb the liquid and take it to a professional dry cleaner immediately.

What kind of undergarments work best?

Due to the knot front and draped bodice, seamless nude-colored undergarments are recommended to ensure a smooth silhouette.

Is the fabric stretchy?

Velvet typically offers a slight amount of natural give, providing a comfortable fit that moves with you.

Troubleshooting

Visible creases in the velvet fabric

Use a professional garment steamer from a distance, or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes. Never place the iron directly on the velvet.

Pleats look flattened after storage

Hang the dress in an open space for 24 hours. If they do not recover, consult a professional dry cleaner who specializes in pleated garments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your velvet maxi dress in pristine condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Storage: Always hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder bumps and to allow the pleated skirt to hang naturally, avoiding creases.
  2. Cleaning: Due to the velvet material, this dress is best maintained via professional dry cleaning. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents which can crush the velvet pile.
  3. Travel: If transporting, fold the dress inside out and wrap it in acid-free tissue paper to prevent the velvet from catching on other fabrics or developing pressure marks.
  4. Compatibility: This garment pairs well with classic evening accessories. For styling, ensure your shoes are compatible with the hem length to prevent tripping.
