FAQs

What is the primary material of this dress?

This garment is made from 100% silk, offering a premium and lightweight feel.

How does the sizing run for this model?

The dress follows a regular fit and is available in UK size 8 (with size 10 siblings also available in the same style).

Can I machine wash this dress?

No, machine washing can permanently damage the delicate silk fabric. Professional dry cleaning is highly recommended.

Is the handkerchief hem style appropriate for formal events?

Yes, the asymmetric handkerchief hem provides a modern, high-fashion touch that is suitable for most formal and semi-formal occasions.

What is the specific color tone of this dress?

The dress comes in an orange color family, designed to provide a bold, sophisticated statement.

How should I store the dress to keep the hem shape?

Use a wide, padded hanger to distribute weight evenly and prevent the silk from sagging or distorting at the hemline.

Troubleshooting

The zipper feels stuck or difficult to zip.

Ensure the dress is fully cooled if it has been stored in a warm area. Check for any silk fabric snagged in the zipper teeth and gently pull the fabric away before continuing.

Wrinkles appearing after sitting.

Hang the dress in a bathroom while running a hot shower to use the steam to gently relax the silk fibers, or use a handheld fabric steamer on the lowest setting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Stella McCartney dress remains in excellent condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Due to the delicate silk fibers, this garment should only be professionally dry cleaned. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.
  2. Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and prevent the fabric from stretching. Keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
  3. Ironing: If steaming is required to remove wrinkles, use a low-heat setting and keep the steamer at a safe distance to avoid water spots or heat damage to the silk.
  4. Compatibility: This garment pairs well with fine-gauge knitwear, structured jackets, and minimalist jewelry, allowing the unique cut of the hem to serve as the focal point of the outfit.
