What material is the dress made from?

The dress is made from a comfortable jersey fabric with a slight stretch.

Are the angel sleeves restrictive?

Angel sleeves are typically designed to be flowy and loose, providing comfort and ease of movement.

How should I style this dress?

For a casual look, pair with sandals. For a dressier occasion, combine with ankle boots and a jacket. Minimal jewelry often complements the bold print.

Is this dress suitable for petite frames?

Yes, this dress is part of Dorothy Perkins' petite range, designed to offer a better fit for shorter individuals.

How do I care for the jersey fabric?

Generally, jersey fabrics should be machine washed on a gentle cycle and dried on low heat or air-dried to preserve the fabric and shape. Always check the specific care label on the garment.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears to lose shape after washing.

Ensure you are following the care label instructions precisely. Use a gentle wash cycle, avoid high heat in the dryer, and consider air-drying flat to maintain the garment's form.

Fabric feels too clingy.

Wearing seamless undergarments can help minimize clinging. The slight stretch in the jersey fabric is designed for comfort, but the fit can be influenced by underlayers.
