FAQs

Does this dress come in different sizes?

Yes, this dress is available in various UK sizes ranging from 8 to 18 to accommodate different body types.

Is the fabric machine washable?

Due to the delicate nature of velvet, it is highly recommended to follow the care label, which typically suggests professional dry cleaning.

What does 'Petite fit' mean?

Petite sizing is specially proportioned to fit women 5'3" and under, ensuring the waist, sleeves, and hemlines are positioned correctly.

Can I wear this for casual daytime events?

While versatile, the velvet material is typically best suited for evening wear or formal occasions.

How should I store this dress to prevent damage?

Store on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to protect the velvet fibers from dust and crushing.

Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles or crushed velvet texture

Use a professional garment steamer from a distance. Do not press the iron directly onto the velvet fabric.

Lint or dust on the fabric

Use a soft-bristled clothes brush specifically designed for velvet to gently remove debris in the direction of the nap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your velvet midi dress, proper care is essential. Always check the internal garment tag for specific wash instructions; given the delicate nature of velvet, professional dry cleaning is generally recommended to prevent fabric pile damage. When storing, use a padded hanger to avoid shoulder dimples or creases in the fabric. Avoid hanging the dress in direct sunlight, which can fade the vibrant red color over time. Ensure the dress is stored in a cool, dry environment with enough space to allow the velvet fibers to remain uncompressed.
