FAQs
Is this dress suitable for casual wear?
While the botanical print is vibrant, the glass crystal detailing and pleated maxi length make this piece better suited for weddings, garden parties, or evening occasions.
How long is this dress?
This specific petite model is approximately 144cm in length, designed to provide a full-length look for a shorter frame.
Can I machine wash this dress?
No, due to the delicate glass crystal trim and the pleated fabric structure, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended.
Does the waist have stretch?
The dress is designed with a refined, structured silhouette. Please refer to the size guide for your specific UK size to ensure a comfortable fit at the waist.
Is the fabric prone to wrinkling?
The woven material is selected to hold its shape and pleats; however, avoid folding it tightly for extended periods to prevent wrinkling.
Troubleshooting
Pleats are losing their crispness
Take the garment to a professional dry cleaner who offers re-pleating services or professional steaming.
Crystal trim appears loose or missing
Consult a professional tailor or garment repair specialist to safely re-secure the crystal embellishments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep this garment in peak condition, store it hanging vertically in a breathable garment bag to prevent the pleats from flattening or becoming permanently creased. Because the dress features delicate glass crystal trim and a specific pleated weave, it is strongly recommended to use professional dry cleaning services only. Avoid using home irons or steamers directly on the crystal embellishments, as the high heat can damage the setting or the adhesive bond. Ensure that personal jewelry and accessories do not snag on the crystal trim when dressing.
