FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is highly versatile. It's suitable for a range of occasions from professional settings and daytime engagements to evening events and alfresco dining, depending on how it's styled.

How should I care for the cotton-blend fabric?

We recommend machine washing cold on a delicate cycle or hand washing. Avoid bleach. Hang dry or tumble dry on low heat. Iron on a medium setting if necessary. Always refer to the care label on the garment for specific instructions.

Does the dress run true to size?

The dress is designed with a structured fit. It's advisable to check the size guide and consider your personal fit preference. If you are between sizes, you may wish to size up for a slightly more relaxed fit.

Can the dress be worn in warmer weather?

Yes, the cotton-blend fabric offers breathability and comfort, making it suitable for warm-weather wear, especially with its cap sleeve design and midi length.

What kind of accessories complement this dress?

The dress can be styled with minimalist flat sandals for a daytime look, or elevated with pointed heels and statement earrings for evening. It also pairs well with various belts and jackets.

Is the front split adjustable?

The front split is a fixed design feature that aids in ease of movement. It is not adjustable.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after washing

Ensure the dress is ironed on a medium setting while slightly damp, or use a steamer. Avoid over-drying in the tumble dryer.

Fabric feels stiff

This is characteristic of the structured cotton-blend fabric. With wear and proper washing, it will soften. Consider a gentle fabric softener if preferred, following care label instructions.

Buttons feel loose

If buttons become loose, carefully re-sew them using a strong thread and a needle, ensuring a secure attachment.
