FAQs

What does 'midi length' mean?

A midi dress typically features a hemline that falls between the knee and the ankle.

Is the fabric stretchy?

The dress features an elasticated waist for comfort, though the main body fabric should be treated as a standard non-stretch material unless otherwise noted on the garment label.

Can I wear this for formal events?

Yes, with the right accessories like heels and statement jewelry, this dress can be dressed up for semi-formal gatherings.

Does the dress come in other colors?

This specific model is featured in green, but the style is part of a broader collection by Dorothy Perkins.

What is the best way to store this dress?

Storing it on a hanger in a cool, dry closet is ideal to prevent creasing and preserve the elasticity of the waist.

Troubleshooting

Elastic waist feels too loose

Ensure the dress is pulled into the correct position on the natural waistline rather than the hips.

Ruffles look flat after washing

Use a handheld garment steamer to gently fluff the ruffles back into shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Dorothy Perkins midi dress in prime condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Always check the garment's internal care label; usually, a cold machine wash on a delicate cycle is recommended to preserve the ruffles.
  2. Drying: Air dry the dress flat or on a hanger in the shade to prevent the fabric from stretching or the color from fading.
  3. Ironing: Use a low-heat setting or a steamer to smooth out any wrinkles in the ruffle detailing without damaging the fabric fibers.
  4. Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its shape, particularly to ensure the elasticated waist does not lose its tension over time.
