FAQs
Can I wash this dress in a machine?
No. Due to the delicate pearl and bead embellishments, this dress should be professionally dry cleaned only.
Does the dress have any stretch?
Yes, the ponte jersey fabric offers a structured, comfortable fit with a small amount of natural give, ensuring the dress holds its shape while allowing for movement.
Do I need to wear a necklace with this dress?
No, the intricate beadwork on the bodice is designed to act as your primary jewelry, making additional necklaces unnecessary.
Is this dress suitable for outdoor events?
Yes, the floor-length maxi cut is appropriate for outdoor formal occasions like garden parties, though we recommend choosing footwear suitable for the terrain.
What is the best way to store the dress?
Store the dress in a breathable garment bag, preferably lying flat to prevent the weight of the beads from distorting the bodice over time.
Troubleshooting
Loose bead or pearl
If a bead comes loose, store it safely and take the dress to a professional tailor or seamstress who has experience with embellished evening wear.
Fabric wrinkles from storage
Use a garment steamer at a low setting from a distance of at least six inches. Do not iron directly on the beaded sections.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in peak condition, store it lying flat or inside a garment bag to prevent the weight of the beads from pulling on the fabric. When cleaning, due to the intricate pearl and beadwork, professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended to protect the integrity of the embellishments. Always check the internal care label for specific fabric composition guidelines. If you need to store the dress for an extended period, ensure it is kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the blue floral pattern.
