Goddiva Contrast Crepe Halterneck Maxi Dress - Black Cream - Size: 12

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, races, cocktail parties, galas, and elegant evening outings.

Please refer to standard women's UK dress sizing charts. Consult the product's specific size guide if available, paying attention to bust, waist, and hip measurements.

The description mentions a 'neck sash' as part of the dress design, suggesting it is attached or integral to the garment's aesthetic. Removal might alter the intended look.

Given the halterneck and sleeveless design, seamless undergarments are recommended. A strapless or backless bra solution may be appropriate depending on personal preference and support needs.

The contrast colour is part of the fabric design. Proper care, such as gentle hand washing and avoiding harsh detergents, will help maintain the integrity of the colour detail.

Yes, like most dresses, it can be tailored by a professional seamstress to achieve a more precise fit, particularly for altering the length or adjusting the silhouette.

Elegant heels, such as stilettos or dressy sandals, complement the maxi length and formal style. Depending on the event, dressy flats could also work.

Ensure the dress is fully unwrinkled. Hanging it for a day or two before wearing can help the fabric relax. Check that the correct size has been purchased as fit can affect drape.

Experiment with different tying methods. Look for online tutorials demonstrating multiway sash techniques for inspiration. Ensure the sash is ironed flat before attempting to tie.

Crepe fabric can crease. Hang the dress immediately after wearing. If creases persist, use a cool iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth.

Always hand wash separately in cold water, especially for the first wash, to prevent colour transfer. Do not soak for extended periods.
