No, this dress must be dry cleaned by a professional due to the intricate sequin embellishments.
Petite tailoring means the dress is proportioned specifically for individuals of shorter stature, ensuring the waistline and hem fall in the correct, intended places.
A strapless adhesive bra or a backless, halter-compatible specialty bra is recommended to maintain the clean lines of the neckline and back.
While minor adjustments may be possible, the unique hanky hem is a signature design element. It is highly recommended to consult a specialist tailor before attempting any modifications.
The dress uses a structured, panelled construction which is designed to hold its shape. Refer to the size guide for exact fit measurements to ensure comfort.
Check the garment carefully after use. If a sequin comes loose, store it safely and take the dress to a professional tailor to have it reinforced or re-attached.
Avoid wearing bracelets or rings with sharp edges or prongs that could catch on the delicate sequins during the event.
Use a professional garment steamer on a low, gentle setting, keeping the nozzle a safe distance from the fabric, or consult a dry cleaner to steam it professionally.
To ensure your dress remains in pristine condition, keep it stored in a breathable garment bag when not in use. Due to the intricate sequin embellishments, it is highly recommended to seek professional dry cleaning only; machine washing or tumble drying will cause damage to the sequins and the fabric structure. When putting on the dress, be mindful of jewelry that may snag the delicate sequin application. For accessories, simple heels and minimalist jewelry are recommended to complement the dress's high-shine texture. Ensure you check the sizing chart specifically for petite measurements to achieve the intended fit.
