What material is the dress made of?

The dress is made from linen, which offers a comfortable drape and breathability.

How should I care for this linen dress?

It's best to hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry. Iron on a low heat setting if needed.

Does the V-neckline have a deep cut?

The dress features a V-neckline with delicate floral lace detailing. The depth is generally considered moderate, suitable for various settings.

How does the dropped waist affect the fit?

The dropped waist creates a more relaxed silhouette compared to a fitted waist. It drapes from a lower point, offering comfort and a flattering, less structured shape.

What kind of print does the dress have?

Troubleshooting

Dress wrinkles easily.

This is a characteristic of linen. Try ironing while damp on a low heat setting or consider a wrinkle-release spray. Embrace a slightly rumpled look for a relaxed feel.

Lace detail appears delicate.

Handle the lace with care during washing and wear. Avoid snagging the lace on sharp objects.

Sizing seems off.

Refer to the brand's specific size guide and compare your measurements. Consider the dropped waist style and how it might affect fit compared to a traditional waist.
