Goddiva Glitter Velvet Cowl Neck Pleated Waist Maxi Dress - Wine - 12

This dress is ideal for special occasions such as evening events, cocktail parties, formal dinners, galas, and weddings, where a glamorous and sophisticated look is desired.

We recommend professional dry cleaning for best results. If hand washing, use cold water and a mild detergent, then lay flat to air dry. Avoid high heat and do not tumble dry.

The cowl neck is a design feature and is not typically adjustable. It drapes naturally to create the elegant effect.

The maxi length and velvet fabric lend themselves well to cooler evenings. For warmer weather, it can be worn sleeveless, but consider it might feel warm due to the fabric. Layering may be needed for cooler temperatures.

Given the off-the-shoulder and cowl neck design, strapless bras or adhesive options are typically best to avoid visible straps.

The dress features a flattering fit-and-flare silhouette, with a defined, pleated waist that gently flares out towards the hem.

Hang the dress on a wide, padded hanger to support the shape and prevent stretching. Using a breathable garment bag will protect it from dust and damage.

This can occur with glitter fabrics. Ensure the garment is turned inside out before washing, and consider a gentle hand wash. Excessive shedding may be a characteristic of the material.

Avoid high heat when ironing and never tumble dry. If minor crushing occurs, try hanging the garment in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a garment steamer on a low setting from a distance. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The pleated waist is designed for definition; if it feels too constricting, consider if a size up might offer a more comfortable fit while maintaining the silhouette.
