FAQs
Is this dress true to size?
The dress follows standard UK sizing; please refer to the specific size 10 measurements to ensure the intended shift fit.
Can I tumble dry the dress?
No, it is highly recommended to air dry the dress flat to prevent shrinking and damage to the velvet texture.
What length is the dress?
The dress is approximately 97cm long, typically hitting at or just above the knee for most heights.
Does the velvet fabric stretch?
The material provides a slight amount of give for comfort, but the shift silhouette is designed to be semi-fitted rather than bodycon.
Are the beads heavy?
The beading is designed to be lightweight and decorative without weighing down the cuffs or neckline.
Can this be worn for casual daytime events?
While versatile, the velvet fabric and beading lean towards evening and formal wear; however, it can be dressed down with simple flats.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the velvet surface
Use a garment steamer from a slight distance to release wrinkles; avoid pressing an iron directly onto the velvet.
Lint accumulation
Use a specialized velvet brush or a clean, slightly damp microfiber cloth to gently remove dust and lint in the direction of the nap.
Loose bead thread
If a thread pulls, do not pull it; use a small needle to carefully weave the thread back into the underside of the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your velvet dress in peak condition, store it on a padded hanger to avoid shoulder dimples or permanent creasing in the fabric. When traveling, turn the dress inside out and lay it flat or use a garment bag to protect the delicate beading from snagging on other items. While the garment is machine washable, it is recommended to place it in a laundry mesh bag to prevent the beads from catching on the machine drum. Always use a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry flat to preserve the integrity of the velvet pile.
