Troubleshooting

Dress doesn't hang as expected

Ensure the dress is hung correctly on a padded hanger, allowing the fabric to drape naturally. Check that any internal ties or fastenings are correctly secured.

Creasing in the georgette fabric

Minor creases can often be eased by hanging the dress in a steamy bathroom. For stubborn creases, consult a professional dry cleaner for appropriate steaming techniques.

Fabric feels delicate

Handle the dress with care, avoiding friction against rough surfaces. Wear with caution during activities that might involve potential snags.

  • Flattering halterneck and cross-front bodice design.
  • Sophisticated open back adds a modern touch.
  • Available in a vibrant lemon colour.

Cons

  • Primarily suited for formal events, limiting everyday wearability.
