Product Information
Full details
This dark teal midi dress by Phase Eight is designed for adult women seeking elegant attire for spring and summer occasions. Its key benefit is the flattering A-line silhouette combined with a beautiful hand-painted floral print, offering confident occasion styling. A potential caveat is that while made with a linen blend, the primary material is Lyocell, so dry cleaning might be preferred for longevity, despite the machine wash instruction. Key features include a subtle ruched bodice, covered buttons, a matching tie belt, and a flowing halter midi cut.

FAQs
What occasions is this dress best suited for?
This dress is perfect for spring and summer occasions such as weddings, garden parties, christenings, and other special events where an elegant and feminine look is desired.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the brand's size chart for accurate measurements. This dress is designed in a UK women's dress size 14, and other sizes are available. It features an A-line silhouette and a tie belt for adjustable fit.
Can this dress be worn in warmer weather?
Yes, the Lyocell blend fabric is breathable, making it suitable for warmer spring and summer days. The flowing design also aids in comfort.
What type of undergarments should I wear with the halter neckline?
A halter-neck bra or a strapless bra is recommended to ensure the undergarments are not visible and complement the neckline's design.
Is the floral print on both sides of the fabric?
The product description does not specify if the print is on both sides. Typically, fashion prints are applied to the visible outer side of the fabric.
What is the length of the midi dress?
The dress is described as a midi length, which generally falls between the knee and the ankle. Specific measurements would typically be found on the product's detailed specifications or size guide.
Can the tie belt be removed?
The description mentions a 'matching tie belt,' suggesting it is an integral part of the design, often attached or designed to be threaded through loops. It is likely intended to be used with the dress.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after washing
Iron on a low heat setting, preferably while the garment is slightly damp. Ensure you use a pressing cloth to protect the fabric and print.
Color fading after multiple washes
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing on a cold or 30°C delicate cycle. Washing inside out can also help protect the color.
Tie belt does not stay tied securely
Try tying a double knot or a more secure bow. Ensure the fabric is not overly slippery; if it is, a slight dampness may help it grip better.
Ruched bodice looks uneven
Gently smooth out the ruching by hand after washing and drying. Avoid aggressive stretching or wringing, which can distort the pleats.

- Washing: Delicate machine wash recommended. It is advisable to wash inside out in a laundry bag on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.

- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the dress flat on a drying rack or hang it on a padded hanger away from direct heat or sunlight to air dry.
