FAQs

What material is the Stretch Crossover Midi Dress made of?

The main fabric is 95% Polyester and 5% Elastane, with a 100% Polyester lining, offering comfort and stretch.

How should I wash this dress?

This dress is machine washable. We recommend using a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and air drying or tumble drying on low heat to preserve the fabric.

Is this dress suitable for all seasons?

Due to its 3/4 sleeves and fabric blend, it is primarily designed for Autumn/Winter wear, offering warmth and style during cooler months.

Does the dress run true to size?

Yes, this Roman dress is designed for a regular fit and is true to size, so you can generally purchase your usual UK dress size.

Can I wear this dress for formal events?

While it's versatile, its 'plain' style makes it more suitable for smart casual to semi-formal occasions. Pairing it with elegant accessories and heels can elevate it for more formal settings.

What type of sleeves does this dress feature?

The dress comes with comfortable and stylish 3/4 sleeves, providing ideal coverage for cooler weather.

Is the dress lined?

Yes, the Stretch Crossover Midi Dress features a full 100% Polyester lining for added comfort and a smooth drape.

Troubleshooting

The dress feels too tight or too loose.

The dress is designed to be true to size. If it doesn't fit correctly, double-check the UK size you ordered against your usual measurements. Consider exchanging for a different size if necessary.

The crossover detail at the waist doesn't sit smoothly.

After putting on the dress, gently adjust the fabric around the crossover area. Ensure the dress is pulled down evenly and that the layers of the crossover are lying flat. A slight adjustment often resolves this.

The fabric seems to wrinkle easily after washing.

To minimize wrinkles, remove the dress from the washing machine promptly after the cycle ends. Hang it immediately on a hanger to air dry. If wrinkles persist, a low-heat iron or garment steamer can be used, preferably on the inside of the fabric.

The dress feels less 'stretchy' over time.

Improper washing or drying temperatures can affect the elastane fibers. Always machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and air dry or tumble dry on very low heat to preserve the fabric's elasticity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & Sizing

This dress is designed for a regular fit and is generally true to size. When selecting your size, refer to standard UK sizing for Roman brand clothing. There is no complex 'setup' for this garment; simply put it on and adjust for comfort.

  • Footwear: Boots (knee-high, ankle), heels, elegant flats.
  • Outerwear: Jackets (tailored, leather), blazers, long cardigans, coats.
  • Accessories: Statement necklaces, scarves, belts to further define the waist, handbags.
  • Season: Best suited for Autumn/Winter due to its fabric composition and 3/4 sleeves.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your dress, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Machine Washable: Use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
  3. Drying: Avoid high heat. Tumble dry on low or, ideally, hang to air dry to prevent shrinking and maintain fabric integrity.
  4. Ironing: If needed, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out or with a pressing cloth, to protect the polyester blend.
  5. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  6. Dry Cleaning: Info needed: Check garment label for specific dry cleaning recommendations.

Following these steps will help maintain the dress's stretch, color, and flattering silhouette.
