FAQs
Is the fabric heavy?
The dress uses a soft-touch stretch fabric that provides warmth without being excessively heavy, making it ideal for layering.
How do I choose the right size?
The dress follows standard UK sizing. If you prefer a looser fit or intend to wear layers underneath, you may want to consider your standard size.
Can I tumble dry this dress?
No, it is recommended to air dry this garment to preserve the texture and sheen of the velvet.
What is the length of the dress?
The dress has a length of approximately 93cm.
Does the velvet material stretch?
Yes, the dress is crafted from a stretch velvet, which allows for a comfortable, forgiving fit.
Troubleshooting
Visible creases in the velvet upon arrival
Steam the dress gently from the inside or hang it in a steamy bathroom; avoid direct contact with a hot iron.
Zip feels difficult to pull
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zip track; if stiff, rub a lead pencil tip along the zip teeth to provide lubrication.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress maintains its appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: This garment is machine washable. Turn the dress inside out before placing it in the washing machine to protect the outer velvet finish.
- Drying: Air dry the dress on a hanger to prevent unwanted creasing or damage to the velvet pile caused by tumble drying.
- Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and avoid permanent indents in the velvet fabric.
- Styling: The red hue is highly versatile; pair it with black accessories for a bold look or metallic jewelry to elevate the ensemble for festive occasions.
