FAQs
Can I wear this dress without the included belt?
Yes, the belt is removable, allowing you to style the dress for a more relaxed, flowing fit.
Is the fabric see-through?
Due to the cutwork embroidery, we recommend wearing appropriate nude-tone undergarments for full coverage.
How should I store this dress?
Store on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place, ensuring the garment is not crowded in your closet to prevent crushing the puff sleeves.
Does this dress run true to size?
The dress follows standard UK sizing, but since it is made of structured cotton, it is recommended to check your measurements against our size chart.
Is the dress suitable for autumn weather?
While the cotton fabric is ideal for spring and summer, it can be layered with a light jacket or trench coat for cooler transition days.
Troubleshooting
Creasing or wrinkling
Use a handheld garment steamer for the most gentle approach to smoothing out the cotton fabric.
Belt hardware losing luster
Gently polish the gold-toned hardware with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints and dust.
Minor snag in embroidery
Do not pull the thread. Use a small needle to carefully push the loop back through to the underside of the fabric.

Care Instructions:

- Avoid using strong chemical bleaches that might affect the gold hardware finish.
