Please note that the floor-grazing length of 142cm requires careful consideration regarding footwear choice to avoid tripping or dragging the hem.

The dress is designed to follow standard sizing. Given the flowing nature of the skirt, it allows for some comfort, but the high neck is structured, so ensure your neck measurement aligns with the bodice fit.
Strappy metallic heeled sandals are recommended to complement the dress without competing with the bold floral pattern.
Due to the high-neck design, necklaces may look cluttered. Opt for statement earrings instead to draw attention to the face and shoulders.
Like most georgette fabrics, it is delicate. Be mindful of sharp jewelry or rough surfaces when wearing the dress to avoid snagging the woven material.
Because the dress is fully lined, it is quite opaque. Choose seamless, skin-toned undergarments to ensure a smooth profile beneath the dress.
Visit a professional tailor to have the hem adjusted; do not attempt to cut the georgette fabric yourself as it requires specific hemming techniques.
The sleeves are designed for a dramatic effect. If they become cumbersome, consider using small, clear fashion tape or pins to temporarily secure them to the inner wrist area.
Use a garment steamer on a low setting. Keep the steamer nozzle at least six inches away from the fabric to prevent heat damage or flattening the georgette texture.
To maintain the integrity of the crinkle georgette fabric and the floral print, always check the internal garment tag for specific washing instructions. Due to the delicacy of the material, it is typically best to avoid machine drying. If the dress arrives with minor creases from shipping, a light steam from a distance is recommended to relax the fabric without damaging the texture. Store the dress on a high-quality padded hanger to ensure the shoulder cut-outs retain their shape. Since the dress is fully lined, it is highly compatible with most undergarments, though seamless options are recommended to maintain the silhouette's clean lines.
