FAQs

What material is the Sosandar Wood Block Shirred Waist Dress made of?

The dress is made from wool, offering a comfortable and natural feel.

How should I care for this wool dress?

It is recommended to check the care label, but generally, wool dresses should be hand-washed in cold water or machine-washed on a delicate wool cycle, and dried flat. Avoid tumble drying and harsh chemicals.

Can this dress be worn in warmer weather?

While wool provides some breathability, it is best suited for cooler to moderate temperatures. It might be too warm for very hot weather.

What footwear do you recommend pairing with this dress?

The description suggests pairing it with wedges. However, it can also be styled with sandals, espadrilles, loafers, or heeled boots depending on the occasion.

Is the shirred waist adjustable?

The shirred waist is designed to offer a comfortable, flexible fit that cinches in, rather than being adjustable with drawstrings or ties.

What is the length of the dress?

The dress falls to a swishy tiered hem, indicating a midi or maxi length, but specific measurements would need to be checked against a size guide.

Does the woodblock print come in other colors?

Based on the provided information, this specific dress variant is described as 'Black' with a woodblock print. Other color variations are not detailed here.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As this is a dress, there is no setup or technical compatibility required. The primary focus is on care to maintain the garment's quality and longevity.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Due to the wool material, it is recommended to check the specific care label on the garment. Typically, wool items benefit from hand washing in cold water or a gentle machine cycle using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
  • Drying: It is best to dry wool garments flat to prevent stretching or misshaping. Avoid tumble drying.
  • Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and iron while the garment is still slightly damp, or use a pressing cloth. Avoid direct heat on the shirring to maintain its elasticity.
  • Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its shape. Ensure the garment is clean before storing for extended periods.
