The midi length and structured shoulders are designed to elongate the silhouette, though individual tailoring may be required for optimal fit at the hem.
Yes, standard tailoring for this model includes a secure back zipper for ease of entry while maintaining a clean look.
Due to the zinc-based hardware and structured lining, dry cleaning is strongly recommended to avoid damaging the trim or losing the garment's shape.
It uses a structured material with a lining, making it substantial enough to provide a smooth, professional fit without feeling overly heavy.
The waist already features a statement gold-tone trim; adding a belt is generally discouraged as it may clash with the existing hardware.
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 10-15 minutes or use a low-heat garment steamer carefully, avoiding direct contact with the gold-tone trim.
Gently polish the metal components with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth to restore luster; avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
To maintain the integrity of the garment, always check the interior label for specific care instructions regarding the zinc-based hardware trim. Due to the structured nature of the fabric and the inclusion of metal embellishments, professional dry cleaning is recommended to prevent damage to the trim and maintain the shape of the dress. When storing, use a wide-shouldered hanger to prevent the shoulder padding from deforming. Ensure that the dress is kept in a cool, dry place to prevent tarnishing of the gold-tone metal. Before your first wear, inspect the safety pin trim to ensure it is securely fastened, and avoid wearing abrasive jewelry that might snag the fabric.
