What accessories are recommended for an evening event?

For evening events, a sleek updo, delicate drop earrings, and a structured clutch bag in a tonal shade will allow the architectural floral detail to take centre stage.

What is the fabric of the dress made from?

Does the dress have any stretch?

Satin fabric typically has minimal stretch. The fit is designed to be structured, so adhering to the size guide is recommended for the intended silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the dress on a low heat setting, focusing on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct ironing on the appliqué. Professional dry cleaning may also help remove stubborn creases.

Floral appliqué looks dislodged or damaged.

Inspect the appliqué carefully. Minor loose threads can often be trimmed with sharp scissors. For more significant damage, professional repair or alteration services may be required.

Satin fabric shows water stains.

Water stains on satin can be challenging. Avoid spot cleaning with water. It is best to have the entire garment professionally dry cleaned to ensure an even finish.
