FAQs

Is the dress true to size?

The Mela Dress is cut to a standard adult fit; consult the size guide for UK 20 measurements to ensure the best fit for your frame.

Can I machine wash this dress?

Yes, it is machine washable on a delicate cycle, but we recommend air drying to maintain the fabric texture.

What material is the dress made of?

The dress is crafted from 100% polyester, chosen for its durability and wrinkle resistance.

Is this suitable for formal events?

Yes, its sophisticated silhouette and polka dot pattern make it appropriate for semi-formal occasions when styled with the right footwear and accessories.

Does the waist have stretch?

The dress is designed with a waisted silhouette, but it does not feature a heavily elasticated waistband; the fit is achieved through the tailoring.

Where is the zipper located?

The zipper is located in the side seam, allowing for a clean, uninterrupted look across the back and front.

Troubleshooting

Zipper gets stuck

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the track and gently pull the zipper tab while holding the fabric taut.

Puff sleeves lose volume

Lightly steam the sleeves after washing to re-inflate the shape without applying direct heat.

Static cling

Lightly mist the inner lining with water or use a standard anti-static spray.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile styling suitable for both sneakers and ankle boots
  • Easy-access side seam zip for effortless dressing
  • Textured fabric adds depth to the classic polka dot design
  • Comfortable fit for all-day wear

Cons

  • Material is 100% polyester which may not be as breathable as natural fibers
  • Requires specific care to prevent damage to the puff sleeve structure
  • Limited to specific sizing options within the Finery London range

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the dress features a side seam zipper, always ensure the zipper is fully closed before storing to keep the seam from warping. Given the polyester construction, machine wash on a delicate, cool cycle to preserve the texture. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the ruffles and puff sleeves. If ironing is required, use a low heat setting, ideally with a press cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent shine or scorching.
