Its standout feature is the unique asymmetric neckline and handkerchief hem, which provide sophisticated movement and a flattering silhouette for professional or evening events.

FAQs

Is this dress machine washable?

No. Due to the leather material, this dress must be taken to a professional dry cleaner that specializes in leather garments.

How does the sizing run?

This dress is designed to be a tailored, structured fit. If you prefer more room, consider the dimensions of the size you typically wear, as leather offers limited stretch.

Can I iron this dress?

Never use an iron directly on the leather. If you need to remove wrinkles, use steam carefully from a distance or consult a professional.

What kind of shoes match this dress?

The midi length works best with heels, such as pumps or strappy sandals, to elongate the legs and balance the voluminous hem.

Can the hardware be removed?

No, the waist-defining hardware is integrated into the side seam as a permanent design feature.

What is the best way to store this dress?

Hang it on a wide, padded hanger in a cool, dry place inside a breathable garment bag to protect the leather.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or lint on the surface

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently wipe the leather surface in the direction of the grain.

Minor wrinkling from storage

Hang the dress in a bathroom while running a hot shower; the steam can help release minor wrinkles in the leather without direct heat.

Hardware looks dull

Buff the side-seam hardware with a clean, dry polishing cloth to restore its original luster.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, fashion-forward architectural design
  • High-quality leather construction for a premium feel
  • Flattering midi-length suitable for multiple occasions
  • Waist-defining details create a tailored silhouette

Cons

  • Requires professional leather care
  • Less stretch than fabric-based dresses
  • Not suitable for machine washing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As this dress is made of leather, it is essential to treat it with care. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fading of the red hue. When storing, use a wide, padded hanger to maintain the structure of the shoulders and the folded collar.

We recommend spot cleaning with a soft, dry cloth if needed. For deep cleaning or stain removal, always consult a professional leather specialist to ensure the integrity of the material and the hardware is preserved. The dress is true to size but provides a structured fit, so check your measurements against the UK size 12 standard before wearing.
