FAQs
Is the dress true to size?
The dress is designed as a standard adult fit. It is recommended to check your measurements against standard UK sizing to ensure the best fit around the waist.
Can I machine wash this dress?
No, due to the delicate nature of the flocked velvet, professional dry cleaning is the recommended method for cleaning.
Does the dress have a closure?
The dress is designed for a slip-on aesthetic, though users should ensure they choose the correct size for the dropped waist fit.
Is the fabric heavy?
The velvet provides a moderate weight that helps the dress drape elegantly, making it suitable for autumn and winter temperatures.
How long is the dress?
This is a maxi-length dress, meaning it is designed to fall to the ankles or floor, depending on your height.
What should I wear with this dress?
The dress pairs well with minimal jewelry due to the statement-making velvet and hem design. A simple pair of evening heels is sufficient.
Troubleshooting
Creasing or velvet pile crushing
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to allow wrinkles to release, but avoid direct contact with steam to protect the flocking.
Flocked finish looking dull
Gently shake out the garment and ensure it is stored away from direct sunlight or heavy dust, which can settle into the velvet texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the Dita Flocked Dippy Hem Maxi Dress in pristine condition, avoid contact with abrasive surfaces that could snag or damage the delicate flocked finish. Given the velvet material, it is highly recommended to store the dress hanging in a garment bag to prevent crushing the pile of the velvet. Always refer to the internal care label, but generally, this garment should be professionally dry cleaned to preserve the integrity of the flocked design and the shape of the hem. Avoid folding the dress for long periods to prevent unwanted creases in the velvet fabric.
