Setup, Compatibility & Care
As this garment is made from polyester, it is essential to follow the care label found inside the seam. To ensure longevity, machine wash on a delicate cycle using cold water. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can compromise the structure of the corset bodice. Hang drying is recommended to prevent fabric distortion. The dress is true to a UK size 6 fit, but it is advised to check body measurements against standard sizing charts before purchase, as the rigid nature of the corset bodice offers limited stretch compared to jersey-based fabrics.
