FAQs
Is the fabric stretchy?
No, the dress is made from linen, which is a natural, non-stretch fabric.
How do I ensure the best fit for the bust?
Use the adjustable tie at the center of the chest to tighten or loosen the bodice to your preference.
Can I machine wash this dress?
It is recommended to follow the care label; generally, a gentle cold machine cycle is acceptable, though hand washing is safer for the fabric.
Does the dress have pockets?
The design focuses on a streamlined, body-fitting aesthetic and does not include pockets.
What is the best way to store the dress?
Hang the dress on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape of the puffed sleeves and prevent deep wrinkles.
Troubleshooting
Side zipper sticking or hard to pull
Ensure the fabric is pulled taut away from the zipper teeth and ensure no threads are caught in the track.
Visible wrinkles appearing after wearing
Lightly mist the wrinkled area with water and hang it in a steamy bathroom to allow the fibers to relax naturally.
Fit feels too tight at the chest
Loosen the adjustable tie at the center of the chest to accommodate a more comfortable fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Clementine Mini Dress, prioritize proper care protocols. Always check the inner garment label for specific temperature settings for washing. It is recommended to hand wash or use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent to prevent the fibers from breaking down.
Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can lead to excessive shrinking and damage to the delicate gathered chest area. Instead, air dry the dress flat or on a well-shaped hanger away from direct sunlight to preserve the blue color. When ironing, use a low-heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp to effectively smooth out wrinkles without scorching the linen.
