Product Information
Full details
The Adrianna Papell Tuxedo Combo Gown is designed for women seeking a sophisticated, high-fashion statement for formal events like galas, black-tie weddings, or milestone celebrations. Its primary benefit lies in the elegant contrast between the modern, tailored tuxedo-style bodice and the dramatic, voluminous floor-length skirt, which offers a striking silhouette. While the gown offers a timeless aesthetic and practical utility with side pockets, users should note that the structured Mikado fabric and satin detailing require professional dry cleaning to maintain their luster and shape.

FAQs
What does Mikado fabric feel like?
Mikado is a heavy, luxurious blend of silk or synthetic fibers known for its structured, slightly shiny finish that holds its shape beautifully.
Is the gown true to size?
The gown is designed for a UK 10 fit; however, due to the structured bodice, it is recommended to compare your measurements against the brand's standard size chart.
Can I iron the satin lapels?
Avoid direct ironing. If necessary, use a cool iron with a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric, though steaming is the preferred method.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the side pockets are designed to be functional and deep enough to hold modern smartphones or small personal items securely.
Does the dress have built-in support?
The bodice is structured, but it is recommended to wear appropriate seamless undergarments for the best silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Wrinkles in the Mikado fabric
Use a professional garment steamer on a low setting. Keep the steamer moving constantly and do not press the plate directly against the fabric.
Sash belt feels loose
Secure the sash with a small, discreet safety pin or clear fashion tape on the interior side of the waistband to keep it perfectly positioned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your gown remains in pristine condition, adhere to these guidelines:
- Fit: The UK size 10 is designed for a standard fit. If you find the gown sits too long, have it hemmed by a professional tailor before wearing it to ensure the hem does not drag or become damaged.
- Storage: Hang the garment in a breathable garment bag to prevent dust accumulation and protect the satin shawl lapels from snagging or crushing.
- Care: This garment is not machine washable. It must be professionally dry cleaned to protect the integrity of the Mikado fabric and the satin accents. Avoid spraying perfume or hairspray directly onto the satin lapels to prevent staining or discoloration.
