Product Information

Full details

The Goddiva Pleated One Shoulder Bardot Fit and Flare Maxi Dress in butter yellow is designed for women seeking a sophisticated and statement-making outfit for special occasions. Its key benefit lies in its elegant design and flattering silhouette, which does much of the styling heavy lifting. A potential caveat is that the unique neckline and fit may require specific undergarments. This maxi dress features an asymmetric neckline, bardot sleeves, pleated detailing, and a mermaid hem, all crafted from a structured scuba crepe fabric in a vibrant butter yellow hue.

FAQs

What type of bra should I wear with this dress?

Due to the one-shoulder and off-shoulder design, a strapless bra or a bra with clear straps is generally recommended. Some may opt for no bra depending on personal preference and support needs.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the brand's specific size chart for Goddiva. Generally, measure your bust, waist, and hips and compare them to the provided measurements for UK size 14.

Is this dress suitable for very tall individuals?

This is a maxi dress, designed to be long. The specific length for UK size 14 should be checked against your height. It is generally designed for adult heights, but individuals over 5'10" might find it falls above the ankle.

Can the mermaid hem be altered?

Yes, like most garments, the hem can be altered by a professional tailor. However, altering the mermaid shape may affect the intended silhouette and flow of the dress.

How should I clean the dress?

The recommended care is dry clean only to preserve the fabric's structure and the garment's overall appearance.

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, galas, formal dinners, and sophisticated parties where a statement outfit is desired.

Does the butter yellow color fade?

With proper care (dry cleaning only, avoiding direct sunlight for prolonged periods), the color should remain vibrant. Scuba crepe is generally colorfast.

Troubleshooting

Dress doesn't hang as expected

Ensure the dress is hung properly on a wide hanger. Allow it to hang for a day or two to let the fabric relax. If the issue persists, consider professional steaming to help reset the fabric structure.

Creases or wrinkles after storage

Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Alternatively, hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period or consult a professional dry cleaner for pressing.

Colour appears different from online images

Screen settings can affect colour representation. Refer to the descriptive colour name ('butter yellow') and consider viewing on multiple devices if possible. Note that slight variations are inherent.
