FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for formal and semi-formal occasions such as weddings, garden parties, races, graduations, and other smart daytime or evening events.

What material is the dress made of?

The dress is crafted from a linen-blend fabric, which provides a refined yet relaxed texture, and is cotton-lined for comfort.

How should I care for this dress?

Due to its delicate fabric and construction, the dress requires dry cleaning only. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.

What is the length of the dress?

The dress falls to a midi length, measuring approximately 138cm from the shoulder to the hem.

Does the dress come with the belt shown?

Yes, the dress includes a coordinating belt with a square buckle to cinch the waist.

Can I wear this dress in hot weather?

Yes, the linen-blend fabric offers breathability, making it a suitable and comfortable choice for warm-weather occasions.

What type of undergarments are best?

A seamless bra is recommended. Given the halterneck and structured bodice, a strapless or backless bra might also be suitable depending on personal preference and the desired smooth silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Dress wrinkles easily

This is characteristic of linen blends. Hang the dress immediately after wearing. Use a cool iron on the reverse side, or consider professional steaming for best results.

Bodice feels too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the brand's sizing chart. The boning in the corset provides structure; if it feels uncomfortable, consider if the fit is right for your body shape.

Belt buckle appears loose

Check if the belt is threaded correctly through the buckle. If the buckle itself feels defective, contact customer service.

Fabric feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure the garment was dry cleaned professionally as recommended. Sometimes, certain cleaning agents can affect fabric texture; professional cleaning should mitigate this.
