Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the length of this dress?

This dress is a midi length with an approximate drop of 140cm.

What material is used for this dress?

It is crafted from a durable, stretch-infused polyester knit.

Is this suitable for a black-tie event?

Yes, its structured design and dramatic tassel hem make it an excellent choice for black-tie events, weddings, and formal evening functions.

How should I store the dress to protect the fringe?

Keep it hanging vertically in a garment bag to ensure the tassels remain straight and do not tangle or curl.

Can I wear a necklace with this dress?

While the crew neckline is minimalist, be cautious with necklaces that have sharp edges or loose clasps that could snag the knit fabric.

Troubleshooting

Tassels appear tangled after storage

Gently shake the dress to allow the fringe to fall naturally and use a steamer on a low setting from a distance to help them settle.

Fabric snagging

Avoid contact with rough surfaces, jewellery with sharp edges, or handbags with metallic hardware that could catch on the knit structure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, sculpted bodice detailing
  • High-movement tassel fringe creates a dramatic aesthetic
  • Stretch fabric provides comfort and a close fit
  • Versatile for multiple formal event types

Cons

  • Tassel fringe may require extra care during storage
  • Specific silhouette may be less forgiving than looser fits
  • Dry clean or specialized maintenance likely required due to fringe

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your dress, proper care is essential:

  1. Storage: Hang the dress using high-quality hangers that support the shoulders. Ensure the fringe is hanging straight to avoid tangling or kinking.
  2. Cleaning: Given the delicate nature of the tassel hem and the knit construction, professional cleaning is recommended.
  3. Compatibility: The dress features a standard UK size 12 fit. The stretch-infused polyester allows for slight flexibility, but ensure the bodice seams align correctly with your frame for the intended silhouette.
  4. Jewellery: Because of the refined crew neck, statement earrings or bracelets are recommended over heavy necklaces to avoid snagging the knit fabric or fringe.
