FAQs
What type of undergarments are recommended?
Seamless undergarments in a neutral tone are recommended to avoid visible lines under the dress. A strapless or convertible bra may be suitable depending on personal preference and the fit around the neckline.
Can this dress be altered?
Yes, like most garments, this dress can be altered by a professional tailor for a more precise fit, particularly for length adjustments.
What shoes should I wear with this dress?
Elegant heels, such as stilettos or block heels, in complementary colours like silver, gold, nude, or black would pair well. Strappy sandals are also a good option.
Is this dress suitable for a summer wedding?
Yes, the midi length and cap sleeves make it appropriate for summer weddings, especially when paired with lighter accessories. The vibrant blue is also fitting for the season.
What accessories would complement this dress?
Consider delicate jewelry, a clutch bag, and elegant heels. A shawl or bolero could be added for cooler evenings.
How do I find other sizes?
Other sizes are available as separate product listings. Please refer to the product title or search for the brand and style with your desired size.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased after shipping.
Gently steam the dress on a low setting, focusing on the affected areas. Avoid direct high heat, especially on pleats.
Pleats are not sitting correctly.
Ensure the dress has been professionally dry-cleaned and handled according to care instructions. Attempting to re-pleat at home is not recommended.
Colour transfer (cobalt blue bleeding).
This is unlikely with proper dry cleaning. If experienced, contact the retailer immediately. Avoid washing with other garments.
