FAQs
Is the fabric stretchy?
While the bias-cut allows for some natural movement and drape, the polyester satin fabric itself does not contain high amounts of stretch; it is designed for a regular, structured fit.
Can this dress be machine washed?
It is best to wash on a gentle or delicate cycle inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the satin finish, though hand washing is the safest method.
What is the best way to store this dress?
Always hang the dress on a padded or smooth hanger. Avoid wire hangers which can catch on the satin and cause snags.
Does the dress run true to size?
The dress is designed as a regular fit. If you prefer a looser drape, some customers prefer sizing up, but it is generally intended to follow your standard UK sizing.
Can I wear this in the summer?
Yes, the lightweight polyester construction makes it breathable enough for warm-weather formal occasions, though it is versatile enough for year-round wear.
Troubleshooting
Fabric wrinkles after storage
Use a handheld steamer on a low setting to gently release wrinkles without applying direct heat.
Static cling
Lightly mist the inside of the dress with water or use a dedicated anti-static spray before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your dress in optimal condition, always follow the care label instructions. Given the satin construction, we recommend hand washing or using a delicate machine cycle with a protective garment bag. Avoid harsh detergents and bleach. For storage, hang the dress on a smooth, padded hanger to prevent shoulder marks or fabric distortion caused by the weight of the maxi length. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting or a garment steamer held at a safe distance to remove wrinkles without scorching the synthetic fibers.
