This specific variant is engineered for petite proportions, which may result in a shorter length than expected for average or tall heights.
Professional dry cleaning is essential to protect the hand-embellished glass beads and delicate sheer fabric.
The dress uses woven fabric which generally offers minimal stretch; please refer to the size guide for an accurate fit.
Due to the deep V-neck and sheer cape details, consider seamless, skin-tone shapewear or specialized adhesive support.
Avoid direct contact with an iron, as heat can damage the beads and sheer fabric. Use a low-heat steamer from a distance if necessary.
Keep spare beads if provided, or take the garment to a professional tailor specializing in evening wear for re-attachment.
Avoid wearing jewelry with rough edges or prongs that could catch on the sheer cape fabric.
To maintain the integrity of the garment, always store it flat or on a padded hanger to support the weight of the beading. Due to the intricate hand-applied nature of the embellishments, it is highly recommended to seek professional dry cleaning services rather than attempting home washing. Before wearing, check that all beads are secure. When pairing with footwear, consider a simple heel to maintain the proportions of the floor-length skirt.
