FAQs

What material is this dress made from?

The dress is crafted from 100% cotton.

What type of neckline does the dress have?

It features a classic collared neckline.

How is the fit adjusted?

The dress comes with a self-tie belt that cinches at the waist to adjust the fit.

What is the hemline like?

The hemline is scalloped, adding a decorative and feminine finish.

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

It is suitable for a variety of occasions, from summer garden parties and smart-casual lunches to more relaxed weekend or coastal outings.

How should I care for the broderie anglaise detail?

The broderie anglaise requires gentle care. Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle with cool water and mild detergent. Lay flat to dry and iron on a low heat setting, being careful around the detailed areas.

Is the dress lined?

The product description does not specify if the dress is lined. However, typical broderie anglaise dresses are often unlined or have a partial lining.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears creased after washing.

Iron on a low heat setting while slightly damp. Ensure the garment is properly air-dried or carefully pressed.

Broderie detail feels stiff or damaged.

Gently hand wash with mild detergent and cool water. Avoid harsh scrubbing or wringing. Ensure it is laid flat or hung to dry.

Belt does not stay tied.

Ensure the belt is tied securely. If the fabric is very smooth, a double knot might provide more grip.
