Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the length of this dress?

This dress sits at a midi length, measuring approximately 136cm.

Can I wear a standard bra with this dress?

Due to the asymmetric one-shoulder design, a standard bra may be visible. A strapless, adhesive, or multi-way bra is recommended.

How should I clean this dress?

We recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the sculptural integrity and the fabric's compact stretch quality.

Does the fabric stretch?

Yes, the dress is made from a high-quality compact stretch material that is designed to skim the body and hold its shape.

Is the split high?

The dress features a front thigh-high split intended to provide ease of movement while maintaining a refined and sophisticated look.

Troubleshooting

Visible lines from undergarments

Switch to seamless laser-cut undergarments or shapewear for a smoother finish.

Minor wrinkling on the ruffles

Use a professional garment steamer from a distance, or have the item professionally pressed to avoid crushing the fabric structure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sculptural and unique architectural design
  • High-quality compact stretch fabric holds shape well
  • Flattering midi length with a sophisticated pencil fit
  • Versatile for various formal occasions

Cons

  • Fitted silhouette requires specific undergarments for a seamless finish
  • One-shoulder design limits strap options for support
  • Dry cleaning typically required for maintenance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress remains in peak condition, follow these guidelines:

  • Undergarments: Due to the close-fit nature of the stretch material, seamless, nude-colored undergarments are highly recommended to maintain a clean silhouette.
  • Footwear: Pair with heels to complement the midi length and the split in the skirt.
  • Maintenance: Given the architectural ruffle detail and the fabric composition, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the structure and prevent damage to the delicate folds.
  • Storage: Hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder creasing and to maintain the shape of the one-shoulder fold.
